Creating my own webmail

DB7 · December 14th, 2002

Is it possible to create your own web based email service. I would like to add one to my site but can't find anything.
Does anyone know of a program or am I living a dream

i think a linux machine can do it.

that stuff is mostly for small businesses. Even if you do find something, it wouldn't give much. You betta stick with a message board

Well, if you got a 24/7 server with a permanent connection, a very fast line and a linux machine you can basicly do what you're looking for ... but I doubt you got the technical knowledge somehow (no offense, but it isn't really easy)

Thanks for the replys.
I think the message board option will be the best choice for now.

Well, there's always www.bigmailbox.com

This route, however, would require that you have your own DNS server so you can redirect the MX record to them.

Not exactly the greatest, but it works...
