Afterlogic Webmail Pro is a webmail front-end for your existing mail server, with personal calendar, contacts, and mobile sync.
Webmail Pro includes Paranoid Encryption module which provides strong AES-256 browser-based encryption. When enabled, encryption process occurs right in the browser, file content is transmitted to the server in encrypted form only, encryption keys are never transmitted to the server at all. Thus, even if the entire data from the server was stolen, your encrypted data is still safe: any data on the server cannot help decrypt encrypted files without the keys.

During installation process you will need:
-
Note! npm 3.0 or later is required
- Download and unpack the latest version of Webmail Pro 8 into your installation root directory
https://github.com/afterlogic/webmail-pro-8/archive/latest.zip
We're assuming that you wish to install the latest stable version of the product. If you're looking for the latest code (e.g., to contribute changes), the following steps needs to be taken:
- Instead of unpacking the archive, clone the repository into the installation directory:
git clone https://github.com/afterlogic/webmail-pro-8.git INSTALL_FOLDER_PATH
- change modules' versions in
modules.json
file to "dev-master" - adjust
composer.json
configuration file so that sources are preferred:
{
"config": {
"minimum-stability": "dev",
"preferred-install": {
"afterlogic/*": "source"
}
}.......
-
Download
composer.phar
fromhttps://getcomposer.org/composer.phar
-
Start the composer installation process by running the following from the command line:
php composer.phar install
NB: It is strongly advised to run composer as non-root user. Otherwise, third-party scripts will be run with root permissions and composer issues a warning that it's not safe. We recommend running the script under the same user web server runs under.
-
Next, you need to build static files for the current module set.
First of all, install all npm modules via
npm install
and install gulp-cli module globaly
npm install --global gulp-cli
-
Now you can build static files
gulp styles --themes Default,DeepForest,Funny,Sand
gulp js:min
-
Now you are ready to open a URL pointing to the installation directory in your favorite web browser.
-
Upon installing the product, you'll need to configure your installation.
IMPORTANT:
-
Make sure data directory is writable by the web server. For example:
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/webmail/data
-
It is strongly recommended to runs the product via https. If you run it via http, the majority of features will still be available, but some functionality aspects, such as authentication with Google account, won't work.
To enable automatic redirect from http to https, set RedirectToHttps to true in data/settings/config.json file.
Protecting data directory
All configuration files of the application and user data are stored in data directory, so it's important to protect data directory to make sure that nobody can access that directory over the Internet directly.
