1. General questions
1.1. Why another Webmail product ? There's already so many. What's the point of another one ?
At the time of creation (2002), there are actually very few usable Webmail products, with features we want such as open-source, multi-language support, efficiency, and extensability.
1.2. IronMailer, what´s in the name?
Well first it's hard to find a new name in IT services. That's why you end up with really crappy service names, such as "Wanadoo". But we made an effort anyway and tried to come up with something original. Mr. Marto (from nawak-online.org) offered IronMailer, as a tribute to the band IronMaiden of course, and the name was adopted.
1.3. Which browsers are supported ?
All recent browsers should work.
1.4. What do I need to run IronMailer on my system ? How do I install it ?
Please consult, in the Technical documentation, the Installation Notes
2. Usage Questions
2.1. Which folders do I see in IronMailer ? I think there is some folder it´s not showing me.
IronMailer lists all SUBSCRIBED Imap folders. These are - normally - the folders you want to see. There might be some other folders in your Imap account, but they are not marked as subscribed, so they are not shown - these are usually system internal folders which are not meant to be displayed.
