Persistence is a total win for webmail. It's among the issues I had  
with everything written in PHP.

So I wrote my own. http://dinhe.net/~aredridel/projects/ruby/camping-at-the-mailbox

It uses the ruby "Camping" framework, and runs as its own daemon or  
fastcgi process.

It's working relatively well, and has a sparse, low-fi but pretty  
usable interface.

I'm actively taking patches, too, and am interested in grafting on an  
AJAX-additional interface.
