Sqwebmail

From Qmail Info Wiki

sqwebmail is a webmail front-end program written by Sam Varshavchik, the author of courier-imap. It is actually a stand-alone version of the webmail portion of Sam's Courier Mail Server (http://www.courier-mta.org) package.

It is written entirely in C and C++, and when compiled it produces a single executable- which means that it can run a lot faster than most other webmail systems. However, it suffers from the same problem that many of Inter7's programs seem to have- it requires that you hard-code certain URL and filesystem paths into the executable, which means that if you want to copy or move it to another location, you have to re-compile it.

sqwebmail is also different from most webmail programs in that it does not require an IMAP server- it uses the courier-authlib libraries directly in order to authenticate users, and it accesses their Maildir throught normal filesystem access methods, rather than relying on an IMAP server (such as courier-imap) to handle this.
