I see that SquirrelMail is gone from 6. Is there a package in here somewhere that is a webmail system? Otherwise, I suppose it lives in one of the repos like sourceforge. I just wanted to check if something new existed before doing that.

Upstream has removed SquirrelMail from EL6, but you'll find SquirrelMail and Roundcube Webmail in EPEL [1]

It's not in any centos-related repos, but I'd highly recommend horde: http://www.horde.org/ (IMP is the subsystem that is the webmail portion.)

+1 that's what my hosting provider gives on my webmail service, and I think it's a nice application to use.

Please excuse the untimely response - been busy.
I'd give users Exchange and OWA before I would even consider Horde and its ilk; their track record with regards to security is abysmal and while it may have gotten somewhat better in the past year or so the security track record of that project leaves an extremely bad taste in my mouth.
And yes, Exchange / OWA, over the course of years, is much more secure as surprising as that may sound.

Actually, even the millionaires are noticing their four-flushing ways as well..

Whilst more supportive of the Democrats than Republicans, may I remind you that is was the Republicans that abolish slavery in the USA. The Democrats wanted to continue slavery. I am a tea drinker but refuse to drink anything with the Tea Party or with the intellectual genius from Alaska (a Life Member of the National Rifle Association and thinks the Second Amendment includes the right for every weirdo to have handguns and semi-automatic assault weapons).
Thankfully Centos, thought addictive, is not so dangerous :-)

Yes. and the Republicans used to be the party against foreign wars and for staying out of people's bedrooms. Their recent behavior is just symptom of their current mental and moral bancruptcy.
And the success of the Teabaggers shows the mental laziness of too much of the country's population.
But, this is far OT, so I quit now.

Oops!!!! That's my motorcycling lists! ;) I guess the first three pertain to 'all' list except for those devoted to one or more of those three topics. Although, it can be really hard to refrain sometimes.

---- Not going to comment on Exchange/OWA
Horde/Imp etc. security track record is no worse than any other PHP based web-mail solution. It has all the attack vectors - PHP, SQL, IMAP etc. It is so flexible that you can use pretty much any IMAP server (including Exchange), any SQL DB, any web server, etc. which of course leaves many possibilities for misconfiguration. What really happens is that they are sometimes used for sending out spam because of bad password policies on many servers. To the Horde/IMP developers credit, they do have rate limiting methods available. It's also used by many universities throughout the world.
And by the way, check your apache logs... the webmail server script kiddies are looking for is roundcube

It's really hard for me not to. Exchange is a god awful pile of crap that doesn't properly implement IMAP (true of 2003-2007, not tried 2010), and MS don't really care that much about it, as you should be using MAPI. It's buggy enough that a single IMAP client can bring it into a state where it's no longer functional until you restart it all. Message flags on 2007 are stored independently for MAPI and IMAP, so if you read a message with IMAP, it's still listed as unread in the web interface. Reading a message in the web interface will reorder your mailbox as far as IMAP is concerned. Do an IMAP search for an email address and it won't find it, as it only indexes on the real name component. It stuffs up signed messages due to its broken IMAP implementation. Things like thunderbird have code designed especially for Exchange to work around these bugs, so it generally looks a lot more functional than it should.
OWA on 2007 is designed to be rubbish in non-IE browsers. What to set filtering rules up, or check your quota, or arrange a meeting for 10:15am. You won't be doing any of that with firefox.
Anyone holding up Exchange as an example of an IMAP/Webmail solution had better be holding it up as an example of how not to do it.
