I am having hell managing 5 different mail accounts. Since I hop from PC to PC, I can’t afford a desktop client (fyi, i prefer Thunderbird). So it really irritates me having to log into 5 different pages to check all my mail. Yup, this means a lot of mails goes unread.
I looked around for a webmail client that lets me manage multiple accounts.
Here are the ones I found:
1) IMP - Part of the Horde project
That was it. Just ONE. WTH! And that too, for this one, I had to install the whole Horde framework (which I am not at all prepared to do). Meanwhile, for squirrelmail, managing multiple accounts is still down there somewhere, in the wishlist.
Was wondering whether I should take the pain of writing something like this? Or a plugin for squirrelmail? I dont know.

I am seeking for a simmilar solution !
Are you planning to implement such a system soon enough ?
Just curious, are you planning to implement a webinterface for mails where one can put in a pop/smtp server addr + their username/pass and your server would get the mail from those servers and store them for the user.
OR
A system simmilar to meebo that logs in the user into mail accounts in one go and somehow gets the mail for them and shows them a consolidated view
OR
A system where you show different webpages inside diff window panes for diff mails
