Well I tend to agree php is light for both sides server and client. Perhaps I don't understand fully the author(s) motivation, but I don't think it was what they wanted. If you would like to know there is an existing webmail java servlet based it's called "jwebmail" http://jwebmail.sourceforge.net/ and it certainely needs to be revived..
Bye

I think that port RoundCube to java isn't a good idea (One of the best things in RoundCube for me, is that it's written in php :D).
But (since you are interested in a Java-based Ajax client..), have you ever heard about Zimbra? It is not only a Webmail, but a "Collaboration Suite". It's written in java and uses Ajax too..

hello everyone! I am interested in a Java port of RoundCube. Since I am a Java programmer, I am looking for people how are interested in a Java port and, of course, other Java programmers who want to help.
If someone knows a java-based webmail with usable code, let me know please. That might be labour saving :-)
The goal is to create a mail system that can easily be integrated in Java homepages (CMS), using the advantages of java.
