Very, very happy to see this.<p>About 8 years ago, I was singularly managing my company's email. When I was hired, they had been using an awful php based mail system. My first major upgrade was to start using Roundcube. This was a very, very early version and one of the first open source mail projects to offer 'ajax' functionality.<p>When Gmail for business became available, we migrated to that, but for a while Roundcube was the best web interface for email there was to be found.<p>Sadly I haven't kept up with the project over the years, but my early memories still serve me well and I hope that the project has gotten much better over the years.
I love Roundcube, use it everyday. The only thing I wish it had was some type of mobile interface. Didn't see anything in the plugins. There are really no good web mail solutions with a mobile interface. I'd prefer to leave this account off my phone if at all possible.
Good news. I've been using it since fairly early on, and it's a very impressive bit of work, especially considering the pressure to give up hosting mail.
Congrats to them. I remember the days of running IlohaMail on a VPS for my family's mail and was very impressed when Roundcube came out.<p>I eventually decided that hosting my own email wasn't for me, but would certainly encourage any company or organization with a bit of sysadmin resources to take a close look.
My ISP recently switched to roundcube for their webmail. Looks pretty slick, though I'm not really convinced it's as good as it should be. It's slow to fetch my email, and searching for specific emails doesn't work very well.
If I could find a way to filter spam as well as gmail does I would love to back to self-hosting my email. I just can't imagine a time when we'll get anything close to what gmail can do without their huge resources.
Awesome. Looks like they improved a lot during the last 8 years, but also it looks like they didn't update their about page during that time:<p>> <i>"The skins use the latest web standards such as XHTML and CSS 2."</i>
Between Squirrelmail, Horde, and Roundcube, I always liked Roundcube the most. It was more polished than the others, at least, and was far easier to support end-users with. Glad to see the project is still alive :D
they've also introduced an official plugin repo at <a href="http://plugins.roundcube.net/explore/" rel="nofollow">http://plugins.roundcube.net/explore/</a> which depends on composer
Hm, if you would be running a saas business and after 8 years you only have come so far, you'd be dead. roundcube was great back in the days but there are quite a few alternatives now.
