Anyone willing to come up with a nice webmail system for vb3.6x?

I found this:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=115597&highlight=webmail

Problem is it is not that great, and there is no support. The coder has not logged into vbulletin.org since July.

I am willing to chip in $25 while hoping others would donate it to whomever has the expertise to do this.

I also recommend Roundcube.net (I use it as webmail with cpanel).

I saw that, but look at the ratings. Plus, its for 3.5.4

Most hacks for 3.5 will work for 3.6 with no issues.

Have you checked into this one?

Well WMAIL just retrieve email from the already email accounts. Here we need a solution which acts like full web mail .. Like people can make their account while they sign up for forum and their account also created... Else if u like to just use webmail script than many are available....

Webmail is something that has been asked for over several years now and neither JelSoft or a third party has really come through with. HiveMail had a great start but is long since dead. Gossamer Threads looks like it has potential but is VERY expensive. There was/is another - vMail or vbMail or something like that that works with 3.5.x put lacked a lot of features. The only full blown email system (and by that I mean a system that uses the vBulletin user database and allows you to give an email account at the same domain as the forum as well as send/receive from within the application itself) was SocketMail. The problem there is that SocketMail has been claiming for almost 2 years that vB integration was in the next release. It is a great stand alone email system with a good web interface and even a POP3/SMTP daemon that does not require root (think shared server ISP). There is no vB integration though. They (I think there is 1, maybe 2 developers in India) are running into problems as of late and are months behind. I honestly do not think we will ever see vB integration from SocketMail - and even if we do, it is unlikely that they will develop to stay up with the newest vB releases.

So at this point the floor is wide open. I for one would be willing to pay for a commercial product (I paid for SocketMail and 2 years of renewals and still do not have a working product). Anyone out there up to the task?

No, WMail 'creates' accounts as well. It works as a catch-all address. Anyone who signs up for my forum is immediately given a <user>@<mydomain> address to which they can access via WMail.
