DMailWeb- A great way to provide all your users with full web access to their email - anywhere, anytime.| Overview | Features | FREE Evaluation | Prices & Support | Example | Installation Guide-Manual | FAQDMailWeb - in briefMany users need, and almost all users want, access to their email regardless of where they happen to be. DMailWeb allows you to offer this important service easily to ALL your users by providing a simple easy to use web interface, allowing them access to their email from anywhere, at anytime. DMailWeb is a web to mail gateway, it gives your users/customers direct access to their new mail folder using any web browser from anywhere in the world. DMailWeb allows users to read, reply to and delete their mail, send new mail messages (with attachments) and forward messages intact to others from anywhere. A critical feature of DMailWeb is that the messages may be left available on the server. This means, for example, your users can answer their email at home or when away on a business but still download and file off messages when they return to work in their normal manner with their own client software. DMailWeb Features and BenefitsDMailWeb provides the same features you would expect to see in any good mail client. Being Web based it provides a number of advantages that make it popular with users:
How it Works DMailWeb works by interacting with your POP server, this means you can configure it to use your current mail system in a matter of minutes. It also means that messages read via this gateway are still available to be downloaded into your user's normal email system.

DMailWeb InstallationDMailWeb is easy to install and it takes only a few minutes to have it up and running on your site. You must install DMailWeb on your WEB server, in a directory that you have already setup on your server as containing CGI programs. You should read your server documentation if you don't currently know how to setup a cgi program, typically you would copy the files to a directory like: SERVER_ROOT\cgi-bin\ And you also need to copy all the template files to a directory on your system, it can be anywhere as long as you define the templates variable in dmailweb.ini to point to the same directory, e.g.
On NT mkdir \unzip # Create a temporary directory cd \unzip # cd to it dmailweb10.exe # Unzip the self extracting archive copy *.* \dmailweb # Copy the templates to destination copy dmailweb.exe \SERVER_ROOT\cgi-bin copy dmailweb.ini \SERVER_ROOT\cgi-bin On UNIX uncompress dmailweb10.tar.Z tar -xvf dmailweb10.tar cd dmailweb cp * /usr/web/dmailweb copy dmailweb /SERVER_ROOT/cgi-bin copy dmailweb.ini /SERVER_ROOT/cgi-bin Now edit dmailweb.ini and define the following four things: notepad \SERVER_ROOT\cgi-bin\dmailweb.ini
Changing the look of DMailWebDMailWeb is designed to allow you to customize the look as little or as much as you like. If you wish, you can tailor the template files to give DMailWeb the same look and feel as your own web pages. It is assumed you know how to edit raw HTML files, in addition there are some variables that you can use. The list of variables depends on which page DMailWeb is showing. For example the %%h_subject%% variable only works when displaying an item, or directory listing. Here is a list of the template files, and a brief description of each.
Template VariablesHere is a list of some of the variables that you can use in these templates
%%include%%advert.htm%%Useful for displaying adverts, you would setup a cron job (or program that runs every 10 minutes) to change the advert file, thus displaying a new advert each time someone reads their mail. DMAILWEB.INI settings
