email question

:rolleyes:

How can I view my e-mails on my website without just having a link to webmail?

Um... I would help you... but now sure what the problem is.

So I am going to assume you use the "Access webmail" feature from cPanel.

If you want to set up something like Mozilla Thunderbird or Outlook, just click on "Configure mail client" to the right of that button. Once there just add an account to your mail client and set up the needed server info.

Another option I like is Round Cube mail, use simple scripts to install (not in your main directory, or this will override your pages!). Then go to your mail url (simple scripts provides a link) and then type in your full mail address and password.

Let me re-phrase the question.

I want to creat a web page on my website which acts as an email client, so I can login to my website and retrieve and read my mail from there, without ever leaving the website.

Round Cube mail is the way you want to go.

All you will need to do is to link to the mail index from your pages and then edit the home page of Round Cube so that you have a link back to your website. Round Cube is written in PHP, so you may an HTML link to the index.php page. (The A HREF tag)

....

Of course you can always go the longer route and embed roundcube into a webpage you already have, but that would be far unnecessary and time consuming.
