POP3 ASP Mail client

Post #11,649 by orion 10/3/01 10:14:30 PM Reply	POP3 ASP Mail client Here is the situation, [link\|http://www.usscydonia.org\|USS Cydonia] has had an Outlook Web ASP Client for their users. Recently, an Outlook virus, infected their server. This caused them to shut down the Outlook part. But now they have no web interface to their email. Being the Computer Science Officer of their crew, I am looking for alternatives to reading email. We have the POP3/SMTP services working, we just need an ASP client for free, or one that will work with NT/IIS. Any ideas? *Picking up the pieces of my broken life.*

That way you have less babysitting (viri cleanup) of each client. However, it may not work well if they use a lot of MS-Word, Excel, etc. But it might be great if they use mostly text. "Non-profit" does not necessarily mean there are no paychecks. WorldVision is non-profit, but they have paid employees. I doubt this project fits that profile though. ________________ oop.ismad.com Edited by tablizer Oct. 9, 2001, 12:51:49 PM EDT Expand All History

You can join if you like, like I did, but they meet in the St. Louis, Missouri area. We sold cook books, had car washes, bake sales, and other things to raise money for charity. So doing anything would not be paid as they don't really make a lot of money. Just volunteer work. It was Server based email, but their server caught a virus. I guess somehow due to the Windows exploits, that someone sent a virus to a server and somehow someone opened an infected email and it spread? *Picking up the pieces of my broken life.*

Gotta love that Microsoft! :( Now if I can just convince him to switch to Linux running PHP and MySQL, the problems would all be solved? ;) *Picking up the pieces of my broken life.*
