My first instinct was to be defensive "its not a portal", though I'm not sure why. It does have more content than the standard webmail interface, something that I was aiming for. What I have done is added a message board plugin and made a nice summary page. This is not that much different than the common calander plugin. The advantages of the php message board is that I have more power over the content. I can set administrators, groups and moderators. I pretty much have limitless options with creative SQL query and some PHP (logging each thread view and anything else you can think of). ----------------------------------------------- Joseph D.
