AlphaMail Description

AlphaMail - Accelerated web mail interface with a C++ middleware layer that is more effective than an IMAP proxy AlphaMail is an accelerated web mail interface with a C++ middleware layer that is more effective than an IMAP proxy which is a highly scalable (10k+ users). The interface includes modern features, Section 508 compliance, and universal browser support.AlphaMail is written using C++, perl, and HTML::Mason, and accesses mail stores through IMAPS. AlphaMail is in active production use at the University of Oregon, and currently supports many *NIX variants with any RFC-compliant IMAP server including Cyrus, UW, and Dovecot.Here are some key features of "AlphaMail":· Detailed Message Indexes: Message indexes include the subject and a snippet of the message body. Most character encodings are supported (see Perl::Encode for a list), and are transcoded to UTF-8 for display. · Index Filtering (search): Message indexes can be filtered by keyword (header/body search), quoted phrase, from, and to. The filter field is also UTF-8 compliant, and such a filter will apply to messages that are encoded in other character sets. For example, searching for a japanese word (as in the second screen shot) matches messages that are encoded in shift-jis as well as UTF. · Feature-rich Message Reading: The message reading interface has many features, including the ability to show a message in an unformatted state (i.e. all space preserved, so you can view source code as it was typed), print view, full headers, and image previews (currently jpg, gif, tif, and png). Messages are also transcoded to UTF-8, so all modern browsers can display your international mail. AlphaMail also supports many popular attachment formats, so the attachment can be viewed before downloading. You can view full-size images, list files from zip and tar.gz archives, as well as preview word and excel files. · Message Composition: Compose supports all common features, including address field completion, spell checking, draft messages, attachments, and message size limits. · Configurable Options: There are many user-configurable options such as linkify, HTML image stripping, HTML sanitization, randomized signatures, and IMAP folder subscription (which changes the list of folders on the left edge). · Small Screen Support: You can also change the interface (at login) to support your handheld device! This mode minimizes the on-screen controls for optimal use on PDAs and phones.
