Cypht
Self-hosted open-source webmail that combines several email accounts and RSS feeds into one inbox.
These buttons open the developer's own site, repository or store listing in a new tab. wares.gg does not host downloads.
About Cypht
Cypht (pronounced "sift") works like a news reader for email: it does not replace your accounts but gathers them into combined views for inbox, unread, sent and flagged messages, with RSS feeds shown alongside. It supports IMAP and SMTP, JMAP and EWS.
You can move or copy messages between accounts and compose in plain text, HTML or Markdown. Features are built from module sets, so behaviour can be extended without touching the core. It is written in PHP and JavaScript and installable via Composer or Docker.
