I had an unsolved problem installing onto CentOS7, so switched to the recommended OS of Debian 8 which worked a treat. Easy to install, no problems and mail server off and running. The only disappointment was that the Debian installation used Squirrelmail, which looks absolutely terrible. Unless you are from East Germany c.1986 where it probably looked great. The CentOS installation used roundcube which looks lovely. Unless you work for Apple. So my question is, can the webmail client be easily be switched from Squirrelmail (Bad) to Roundcube Mail (Good) without breaking everything?
Sooo.... Where do I start. Should I uninstall Squrrelmail to begin. How do I do that without losing the webmail facility. Is it a case of simply deleting folders, and then following the Roundcube install?
Just remove squirrelmail with: apt-get remove squirrelmail and then install roundcube: https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/roundcube-installation-on-debian-8-jessie/
Hi Till, Could you install without removing squirrelmail? Do you expect any conflict? Thanks in advance,
yes. No. Just ensure that you dont use the Alias /webmail for both in apache, either use it for roundcube or use it for squirrelmail.
