Re: [cobalt-users] Open Mailing List

I have another point of view on Outbridge.  I have used it for several
months as a stop-gap while I was evaluating Web enabled mail clients. I got
nothing but complaints from my customers and afilliates about it.  The
biggest problem is it is painfully slow.  I recently installed TWIG (free
from the folks  at screwdriver.net)  on a 4 way Xeon Compaq Proliant 7000
running RedHat 6.1 locally and my afilliates and customers are happilly
zipping along now.  It is not a plug-in though.  It requires a PHP capable
Apache server.  I have had it production about 2 weeks for one domain and I
will be soon making it available for all my virtual domains.  Hopefully it
will work as well in a virtual situation. If you want, I can keep the list
updated on my progess and findings.
