What is WebMail?

WebMail is a www-frontend to IMAP/POP3 mailboxes. You can compare it to the systems Hotmail, YahooMail etc use.
It allows a user to access his mailbox via the world wide web and do most things other mail programs allow to do, even if he is not sitting on his own personal computer or corporate LAN.

Features (v0.7)

Who wants to use WebMail?

WebMail is intended for small to medium ISPs, but it may also be used on a standalone Homecomputer running on a Java capable platform.
Currently, WebMail also has some features for very high load servers (20000 users or more) and seems to work without much trouble.
