zeMail is a minimalist webmail package written in Mason. It implements the basic features one would expect from an IMAP mail client, displaying folder and message contents, handling attachments and allowing you to move, mark and purge your messages.
zeMail package is written in plain HTML, and uses JavaScript only to reduce the click count, it will work perfectly with scripting disabled. Compared to the modern AJAX trend, this web mail package is designed to work everywhere.
Installation:
Download and unpack the tarball. Copy the directory lib/Zentus into your Perl inc. path (/usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.4 on Debian).
Copy the contents of mason/ into the desired subdirectory of your Apache htdocs directory or virtual host. Then add the following to your httpd.conf:
PerlModule Zentus::Mail::Connection
PerlModule Zentus::Mail::AttachmentHandler
PerlModule HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler
PerlModule Apache::Session::File
PerlModule Text::Autoformat
< Location / >
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler
DirectoryIndex folder
< /Location >
< Location /attachment >
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Zentus::Mail::AttachmentHandler
< /Location >
< LocationMatch "(/icons|/images|.ico|.html|.txt)" >
SetHandler default-handler
< /Location >
< LocationMatch "(autohandler|dhandler|.inc)" >
SetHandler None
< /Location >
This code segment can be added as-is if you intend to devote a VirtualHost to zeMail, otherwise prefix a directory name in the < Location > and < LocationMatch > tags.
Now install the necessary Perl modules from CPAN:
cpan -i HTML::Mason # or deb: libhtml-mason-perl
cpan -i Apache::Session # or deb: libapache-session-perl
cpan -i DB_File::Lock # or deb: libdb-file-lock-perl
cpan -i Text::Autoformat # or deb: libtext-autoformat-perl
cpan -i HTML::FormatText # or deb: libhtml-format-perl
cpan -i Net::IMAP::Simple # (needed really in name only,
# to be removed in next release)
You may have to create the temporary directory manually:
mkdir /tmp/zemail
chown www /tmp/zemail
Now restart your Apache and your are good to go.

- Supports all basic forms of email, strips out MIME, displays attached images inline, and lets you download the rest.

lfwmail is a light weight web mail program written in perl.
It will run with acceptable speed even on a Pentium 100Mhz Linux mailserver.
It has just basic features and no calendar or folders but it is fully
mime compatible and can handle attachments.
If you dont like browser cookies, this program is very suitable for you, because you dont have to enable cookies.
It is also very secure when you use https (encryption). HTML
mails are converted to ASCII text for security reasons but
you can still see the HTML mail if you want.
The code is clean and structured. Installation is straight forward
and you dont need a lot of non standard modules.
You can run it in mod_perl if you want. Remember to restart the
server when you do changes in the lfwmC.pm or any other file.
Response time will be very fast with mod_perl however for most people
normal cgi-bin will be good enough. lfwmail is already quite fast.
lfwmail is a light weight mail program. It does not keep track on what
you have read and what is new. You have to remember the dates of the
mails. There is however a small help to keep track on what you have seen
and what is new. It works for Mozilla (not netscape 4), Opera and MS IE
only as it depends on javascript style objects: the background color of e-mails
you have clicked on is changed. This is to keep track on what you have
read and what is new. This information does also survive between sessions since
version 1.5.
Enhancements:
- make it possible to call lfwmail with uid=xxx in the url. e.g https://my.host/cgi-perl/lfwmail?uid=joe_wm
