Atmail provides an enhanced Webmail platform for your existing mail-server via IMAP/POP3. Offer the Atmail interface to your existing users and provide more then just standard Webmail.
Atmail allows users to access POP3 and IMAP Mailboxes on any server of your choice. You and your users can experience webmail via a fluid, intuitive interface that excels aesthetically and functionally; a benchmark that very few webmail clients have achieved.
Staying in touch with business or personal contacts is made easy by the groupware features of Atmail. The easy-to-use calendar events, tasks, and free-busy scheduler provide collaboration and communication around the clock, with the simplicity of a browser-based interface.
We made sure that the Atmail installation and administration process is as stress-free as possible - so much so that it won't take more than a minute of your time. Atmail Webmail plugs in directly to your POP3 and IMAP servers with minimal configuration and requires very little, if any maintenance at all.
As a WebMail Client, Atmail is accessible to users via any web browser or wireless device. Requests are handled by the web-server, Apache, which runs the Atmail WebMail Client application written in PHP.
User Settings, Address Book, Calendar/Task, profiles and account information are stored in a MySQL database. In Client Mode, email delivery and storage control are retained by the SMTP and POP3/IMAP server, which is accessed by the WebMail Client of Atmail.
The WebMail Client of Atmail supports any existing POP3/IMAP server running under Unix/Linux or Windows systems. These include:
Sendmail, Courier, Qmail, Postfix, Exim, qpopper, Cyrus, Dovecot, uw-imap - Any POP3/IMAP servers which are RFC-compliant.
Exchange, Imail - Any POP3/IMAP servers which are RFC-compliant.
Atmail Webmail Client can also be used as a drop-in replacement for WebMail clients running under typical web-hosting control panels such as Plesk, Cpanel, and Ensim.
Atmail Webmail Software boasts an innovative user interface, pushing the boundaries of the traditional WebMail feature-set:
Atmail includes "Advanced" interfaces for both IE and Mozilla/Firefox that look like traditional desktop webmail clients, utilizing the latest in Javascript/XUL & Ajax technologies. A light-weight "Simple" interface is also provided, for access via any browser.
Utilizing a permissions-based assignment system, Address Book and Calendar/Task data can be shared with and assigned to other users or groups [within Atmail]. Implement the Atmail Groupware solution to achieve maximum efficiency and enhance team productivity.
Atmail's Enhanced Address Book functionality allows users to import and export contacts from/to CSV (Comma Separated Values) file format. Search and import functionality via LDAP is also provided. Users and administrators can utilize the powerful tabbed interface of the Address Book to create permissions-based shared contacts, controlling which contacts are visible to or editable by other users. The Address Book can also be configured to disallow permissions controls for all users (useful for free email services where global address book access is not desired).
The improved Scheduler interface allows users to manage appointments (tasks) on a quarterly, annual, or daily basis.
Atmail Webmail Software includes the full source code. Written in object-oriented, legibly-commented PHP, modification and customization of Atmail are a breeze. Administrators can add or modify features to accommodate their requirements. The availability of the webmail software source code suits the dynamic development needs of all organizations.
Microsoft Outlook can be synchronized with your WebMail account so that Contacts and Scheduler data can be shared between a desktop and WebMail client. If a user adds a new appointment (task) or contact while using Outlook or Atmail, the data will be automatically synchronized between the applications.
After logging into your email account, view a summary via the webmail client "start page". Here you can check new messages, calendar entries, tasks, and recent logins. This is a great place for placing company news, advertisement banners, or logos.
Email messages can be viewed within a tabbed pane below the folder message-list pane. The tabbed interface allows quick navigation of messages.
Email folders are now accessible via a tree-menu, making it easy to categorize folders and access them again quickly. Sub-folders can be created by right-clicking on a folder. To move a message into a folder, simply 'drag and drop' the message into the desired folder (or check the box next to message and select the destination folder from a list).
From within the Atmail interface(s), users can access any number of external email accounts via POP3 or IMAP.
Atmail includes an SMS interface to allow users to send outgoing SMS messages to any mobile worldwide.
Keep your mail private by enabling mail encryption. Options range from commercial to military grade encryption (4096 bit) for outgoing email messages. Messages can be automatically signed with your public encryption key, allowing others to send encrypted messages to you.
Atmail supports MIME email messages, allowing users to receive attached pictures, multimedia content and data contained in email messages. Users can compose email messages and attach files to outgoing messages.
The user interface and overall appearance of Atmail Webmail Client is created using HTML templates; the HTML source code and output of the core PHP system are separated, allowing for easy modification and customization. You can modify the Atmail Webmail Client system to match the branding of your organization by editing the HTML template source code.
Users can change the WebMail Client interface style and colors to suit their personal taste. Atmail Webmail Software offers many options that the user can choose from, providing a powerful and feature-rich webmail service.
Mobile phones and PDA's that support the WAP/XHTML protocol can access email resources. The Atmail Webmail Client provides an interface via XHTML, allowing users to send & receive email using their mobile device.
Messages received by Atmail Webmail Client can be moved among folders for sorting and archiving purposes. New folders and sub folders can be added and deleted, allowing users to categorize and organize messages.
Messages contained in a user's Inbox can be sorted by Subject, Date, or Email Address. Users can search their mailbox for messages containing matches of the user-specified string, allowing quick and easy access to stored email.
Atmail Webmail Software utilizes a Multi-Language Template system, and has been translated into a number of different European, Asian and Middle Eastern languages. Including Arabic, Catalan, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, Espanol, French, German, Greek, Italiano, Japanese and Portuguese.
