Web-based clients eliminate the need for POP3/IMAP4 software on user desktops and simplify "road warrior" mail access from Internet cafes. Boston Web Factory's Web Messaging allows for greater end-user control, better content security, and considerable "look-and-feel" customization.

Web Messaging allows each user to configure his or her own mailboxes, address book, password, forwarding address, vacation message, automated responses and filtering rules. Self-configuration reduces support cost without loss of control: Any administrator with host privileges can also configure user settings or disable the user's ability to change passwords and LDAP attributes.

Web Messaging sports standard POP client features that are less common in web clients: a simple address book, hierarchical mailboxes, signatures, attachments, text search, message preview, one-button "delete all", and display, reply, send, and delete options. There are limitations: there is no obvious integration with desktop PIMs, mailbox name segments are limited to 8 characters, and nav buttons are somewhat scattered about client windows. Like my favorite POP client Eudora, Web Messaging can be configured to filter incoming messages and send automatic responses. But unlike Eudora, these actions are performed by the Web Messaging Server when the message arrives, without any client interaction.
