Has anyone tried the NextCloud Mail client? The UI looks pretty nice, but I have not played with it: https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/mail

Hi Chris, I have bit tried it but I'm wondering if the mail app can we used standalone without the nextcloud backend? And since it's based on Horde, I'm wondering if it's so easy to run on EL8.
What IS interesting is that nextcloud itself is in EPEL8!

Hi Simon, we used to use Squirrelmail also, but have since migrated to RoundCube. It's easy enough to install on a CentOS 7 server (we don't use EL8) by downloading directly from the Roundcube website and following the installation instructions. The interface is clean, modern, and the project gets frequent updates. Updates have been mostly painless, but they can overwrite some of the customizations one might have made so that is a pain (mostly any CSS customizations or changes to the default .htaccess file which relates to PHP upload size).
I don't recall needing any hard to find RPMs - we generally don't stray further than what is available via the CentOS repositories or EPEL.
Well, I know it's not a problem on EL7 but I'd like to upgrade to something which is a bit more future proof. There's even a roundcube package in EPEL7 but none in EPEL8, and I guess I know why :-)
Seems quite difficult to do this on EL8: https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/wiki/Install-Requirements

Hi all,
I'm still trying to find solutions to replace some aging EL6 and EL7 systems.
This time I'm looking at email. Postfix and Cyrus-IMAPd are not a problem and also additional things like DKIM are fine. However, I'm wondering what to use to replace good old squirrelmail with.
We had a heavily patched squirrelmail with lots of nice things like avelsieve plugin. Since squirrelmail is dead and unable to run on newer PHP, I'd like to use some other tool instead.
I was looking at Roundcube but it seems difficult on EL8 because a lot of PHP stuff is missing and not available as RPMs. I guess the same is true for the python things needed for Mailpile. In the end my list only contains Cypht, Rainloop and Afterlogic Webmail lite.
Is there anybody running webmail on EL8? Can you make a recommendation on a certain tool?
Thanks, Simon
