    To avoid multiple logins in my site, I have decided to bridge my various PHP web items. Recentlly I bridged PHPBB with Coppermine Photo Gallery with the bridging tool in Coppermine. Now I'm looking for a Webmail Client that supports bridging to make one universal login. Any ideas?

    Don't know. Have you had much success with Google?

    I suspect that if you get your hands on a PHP client, you should be able to modify the mail client code, and alter the PHPBB database sufficiently to "bodge" the solution together.

    A couple of years back I had written a user login system for a site, and then later added PHPBB. It was a relatively simple task to alter my code to use the PHPBB database (and functions) for user authentication.

    No webmail clients have such a flaw in them to allow bridging like that, but as Seamus said, it should be easy (sorta) to modify a few codes to fix everything up....

    Agreed, I'm working for a client at the moment building a cms that integrates blog style commenting and adding content for hundreds of users, but also incorporating two purchased php apps which had their own seperate logins. I had to bridge all three. It's tedious, but not that difficult tbh.
