Roundcube VS Cypht

I have tried several, and liked none of them. I'm currently on Geary, but it's lacking in functionality, and it has things like search results being a bit different upon each of my searches. Starred messages cannot be shown on top. Eyeroll.

I think Evolution and Thunderbird are the top contenders, and of the self-hosted ones, Roundcube.

The GitHub issue talking about this [1] is such a mess too. Maintainers closing the question with a vague non-answer, deleting comments left and right, etc. Sounds like someone stole the money and everyone is either complicit or too embarrassed to admit that it happened.

https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/blob/master/SQL/mysql.initial.sql Take a look at the tables an you get a idea, session for the app, users-table, contacts-table, dictionary, etc.

You could try a standalone email client like Mozilla's Thunderbird, or if you're experienced running a web server, you could check out something like Roundcube. I suppose you could even run it locally if you're familiar with PHP and/or Docker.

What I really miss is a "web companion" for Thunderbird, basically something like https://roundcube.net/ or https://www.horde.org/apps/webmail, but a bit more powerful and with better UX. I'd like to use a Google Addressbook within such app, for example (there is a completely outdated plug-in for RoundCube). Another important thing would be powerful and fast search.

Alternatively if you want to keep what you have I wouldn't recommend using the SoGO even though it's the nicest and most modern option. Mainly because it's a full groupware client and will require a lot of configuration. Instead using Roundcube is probably your best option

Roundcube might fit the bill for you.

I'd do it with a local IMAP server in conjunction with a webmail client that connects to it. Dovecot is a fantastic and easy to use IMAP server. Webmail clients are a pretty personal thing, but the last time I used Roundcube it seemed pretty good.

Maybe you are looking for something like Cypht?

Never used it but it is still on my list: cypht https://cypht.org/

I've been following Cypht [0] for a while. It's a web based, lightweight, modular e-mail and RSS client.

The features mention:

> Save the parameters of a search so that you can quickly access them later from the menu without having to enter them again. This is particularly useful for parameters of searches that are used frequently. Saved search parameters can also be deleted later.

I tried cypht but believe this here is my issue (https://github.com/jasonmunro/cypht/issues/485) I couldn't even get my base domain email working so it was a bit of a show stopper for me there.... It took a bit of mucking about just to get it going on unraid and then for the first email i try not work was kinda disappointing...

You might try Cypht? https://cypht.org/
