Already mentioned by sucuri2 in another thread, but roundcube (http://roundcube.net/) looks much more attractive. Still not GMail, but much nicer than squirrelmail.

If you pull down devel-threads from svn, add a couple of plugins, and tweak a few things, RoundCube IMO actually gets better than Gmail.

Interesting. I've liked Roundcube enough to use as a backup way to access mail, but I've never looked at the plugins.

What are some of the plugins that you find useful?

The spamassassin plugin lets you control your spam settings from your webmail account.

I also have managesieve installed, and there's a plugin for it too, so with imap, inbound email gets automatically sorted into folders for me, and I can control that from RoundCube. The filtering is actually way more powerful than anything Gmail can do (last time I checked).

Those are the two "must-haves" IMO.
