Thanks for the review and all the comments. Google Apps For Your Domain is pretty sweet indeed — gotta give them a lot of credit, but it’s also much more than a regular email client.

@jxs: The current 0.3 (trunk) supports a plugin architecture and there are plugins that interface with Sieve (for filtering) — I’m currently not aware of any other.

RoundCube looks pretty and is easy to install. I have written a short review of four different webmailers, including SquirrelMail, IlohaMail, RoundCube and BlueMamba. However I wasn't aware that RoundCube could handle plugins. Please let me know if there is a way filter messages easily.

One good thing about RoundCube mail is that it allows you to login to multiple mail servers and access different mail accounts at the same place.

Nevertheless, I must admit that Google app is quite useful too. I have used it for some of my sites.

Thanks, I’ll have to compare RoundCube to Google apps and see who comes out on top.

Agree with Tom, Google Apps for domains is much more easy and effective. Besides, everyone is so similar to gmail, so that Google Apps for domains is a first choice.

I used to use RoundCube and it *was* a pretty good option for handling domain mail, a couple of years back.

Since Google released Apps for domains, I’ve run all my domain email through that and it works a treat. Plus, it has more advanced tools for anyone administering a small organisation (say, 10 employees: this would leave 10 free email addresses for admin purposes). Google apps for domains includes calendar, docs, sites and more from just one login. In comparison, RoundCube is just old hat.
