I'd like to use it, but my users want POP3 access if they're going to pay for webmail and a domain. So I need to look at alternatives, because as far as I know Hivemail uses one POP3 account, not one for each user.

Could someone cover the advantages of HiveMail vs. something like IMP? I like the usergroup and template features, but it does cost a lot of money. It's almost as much as vBulletin.

I personally think HiveMail is a high quality product that is a great addition to any website that can cope with the traffic.
It can generate an income revenue also, since you can charge for it, a fee. I'm tired of people complaining about the price that is high etc. Guys, do you know that there are other similarly scripts out there that charge $800 and are only half as good as HiveMail? Let's say this: $180 for one license, then you charge $10/year/member. You only need 18 members and your license is paid. So complaining about the price is stupid. Also the script is well done, and I know Chen used some new PHP techniques to reduce the queries stress on the server and it's tables are judiciously balanced to don't eat much of HD space. From what I heard (website information) HiveMail is a pretty complete package. plus I know Chen and his way around with PHP. So I'm comfortable that he released a quality product, that BTW was tested here for several months...

Hi there,
I just picked up HiveMail myself a couple of days ago. It works very well and the back end with all the options and templates is great. I'm very happy with it. I think it will work with my site well. Ricoche :bunny:

I've seen/tested HiveMail throughout the time Chen has been developing it. I guess I was his little guinea pig a couple of times. I was lucky to have that advantage, as the HiveMail site is located on my server (shared with TubeDogg).
I'll be helping with HiveMail whenever I'm needed though. So if you try and get a hold of support, you just may be hearing back from me  HiveMail is the best mail script I've ever seen or used for that matter! I love it!

Teck is right, lets take @mail for example, very bulky, and unorganized script, with bad template management, worth I believe 500$ HiveMail on the other hand is not only 180$ which is very low, but etremly configurable, looks attractive(so if you do not wish to configure the look, the default style is very nice), and is decent on your server. I have used many other similar scripts very hard to manage and install. I have also been one of the 50 or so who have been beta testing the earlier version here at vbulletin.org it is extremly useful, and I can't wait til its put back. I will myself be purchasing it soon as my member-base is a group of people whos age varies and have an interest in the community, this will add to the site alot in more than one way.

I don't have my own server, so I won't be able to get it...but I don't even have the money for it anyway, and it isn't much use to me.
It is however a great script and thumbs up to Chen for creating it!
