Consider the MailMan package from Endymion for a webmail interface to
your system.  www.endymion.com  They have a 30-day free demo so you can
evaluate it.  It's relatively inexpensive to purchase.  The only bad
thing about it is that they have a 1x1 "web bug" gif image embedded in
each page, which is accessed on a http:// connection from one of their
servers.

This caused me some grief because I have the mailman behind a https://
connection, and for EVERY STINKING PAGE the browser says "this page
contains both secure and non-secure items, do you want to download
the non-secure items?" with "Yes, No, Maybe" buttons, or whatever.

Endymion tech support promised to tell me how to remove that from the
perl script that generates the pages, but I haven't gotten around to
contacting them and the disk in the server I was going to use for
mailman crashed anyway.  One of these days...

But anyway the evaluation works fine and I encourage you to try it out.
