Hi,
I'm considering migrating away from gmail for my (one-man) company, and I'm trying to decide if dovecot is the right option (I'm committed to self-hosting). I'm a developer, so happy to do my own tooling if needed.
*Is there currently a good webmail interface to dovecot, or work-in progress?* If not, would a web interface be out-of-scope for dovecot? I want to use SAML for authentication, so a solution that relies on POP/IMAP doesn't meet my needs - unless I add Kerberos into the mix, which is an additional learning curve, and possibly not widely supported.
*Is there currently a good web admin interface to dovecot, or work-in-progress?* If not, would a web interface be out-of-scope? Since I prefer using password-protected SSH keys for shell access, and don't want to tie myself to a laptop (and would hate to use vim on a 3G/4G tablet), I'd like to be able to add/remove aliases and play with SIEVE and ACLs through any available browser.
*How's the work on sharing messages between folders progressing?*
Finally, and I hope you don't mind me asking, are you aware of a good JAVA based alternative to dovecot? I quite like the idea of using lucene indexing on mailboxes, so reducing the number of dependencies has a certain appeal.
Best wishes,
Phil Lello
