    I currently use both Squirrelmail and Horde/IMP in production. Both work
    fine in chrooted environments, but they also both rely on PHP, making them
    inherently untrusted.

    Users prefer Horde/IMP, which has a much nicer interface. I prefer
    *setting up* Squirrelmail which is ridiculously simple to install and
    configure. Horde/IMP appears to work well with more users, although that
    is anecdotal since they are not running on the same hardware nor with the
    same user load. Horde/IMP is currently handling around 200 users for a
    small organization, but could easily handle more without any hardware
    upgrades.
