Has anyone converted WebMail Lite .Net to PHP?
If so, do you have any tips or suggestions?
I'm using a 2008 Windows Server intergrated with hMailServer / MySQL.
Thanks,
Brad

Well, current PHP version has developed much more compared to ASP.NET one, but they still use similar database structure. So in theory, the following approach might work:
- have WebMail Lite PHP placed to web directory;
- copy App_Data folder content into data directory of WebMail PHP;
- with any MySQL admin tool, clone the database used by WebMail Lite .NET; if anything goes wrong, original database is still kept intact;
- don't use WebMail installer (maybe except for its first step which checks the configuration), log into adminpanel with default credentials mailadm/12345;
- in Database Settings screen, enter database credentials and run Update.
Most certainly, that is unsupported solution and you're doing that at your own risk yet it might work for you. hMailServer integration isn't going to work though, as it's only available for ASP.NET version.

Thanks, just so I understand: The PHP version does not integrate automatically with hMailServer. I would have to add mail account into both hMail and your Webmail and also change passwords in both (not a big deal)??
What I really need is to get the Attachments working. Other than this the .NET version is working fine for me.
Brad.

It's not exactly that way. If you have email account in hMailServer, you don't have to add it in WebMail explicitly. Assuming the domain is configured correctly in WebMail, you can just log in by supplying your email address and password.
You can't change email account password in WebMail, but if it was changed on hMailServer side, you can simply log in with the new password specified.
