I went with sqwebmail because I did not want to have to babysit php4
problems. Especially since I use apache2, which does not have php4 yet,
I think.

I've heard a lot of good things about squirrelmail, but sqwebmail is
easy to set up and simple to use, and it even has gpg integration.
Another bonuses for courier users is that it can write maildrop files
for filtering. I even point my users who don't use web mail at the web
mail for a GUI to set up filtering in.

The big downside is that it is tied to courier so if you ever want to
move to anything else you'll have to disrupt the user's web mail too.
And courier only support maildir mailboxes, which can be annoying when
you have users who want both pine and web mail.
