[Kroupware] Web interface frontend

I'm a big proponent of SquirrelMail, and precisely because it *doesn't* cheat 
when retrieving mail.  It's totally standards-compliant, and has a very 
flexible plugin system.

I use Courier-IMAP here but one of the biggest problems with it is that its 
shared folder support isn't 100% ready (at least it wasn't the last time I 
worked with it) -- shared folders are a big big part of kroupware and outlook 
interoperability.
