Thank you very much for your reply. I am already having a look at
openwebmail.org, hope it can be what I\'m looking for. For imap, let\'s say
we have to use it, or at least a part of the users......
Thanks again for the suggestion
Simone

i am not sure about open imap directly. Have you think in a vpn?, they 
can connect using VPN from home.
>From webmail, if you want to use imap, take a look at squirrelmail 
(google for it :-D ), or if you want to provide pop3 (wich i like 
better) , then you can use openwebmail.org (it will let you set up a 
frontend and then add pop3 account for remote retrieval of the messages).
I higly reccomend using a SSL site for webmail.
