Re: Squirrel Mail

As @Cthulhu mentioned, you're free to use whatever webmail which supports IMAP protocol.
The problem is, SquireMail is dead for years, why use it? Needless to say its ugly web UI.

Roundcube might be the best free + open source webmail nowadays, actively maintained, beautiful + fast web UI, plugins, etc.

I'm interested in Squirrel Mail because it works without Javascript.  Javascript is a privacy and security risk.

CVE-2017-7692

Not JavaScript is a privacy and security risk, useing outdated software which is not maintained anymore is a security risk instead

Oh wow, I looked up that error and you're correct that Squirrel Mail is a huge risk.  Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention.  Is there any other software out there that works in a browser without javascript?

Re: Squirrel Mail
