One thing I like about sqwebmail is that you can create rules which the
other do not (maildrop) at least I have not seen it yet.


SquirrelMail has a server-side filter plugin for maildrop filters:

http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=210 (v 1.42)

We've used this for years with a custom setuid vpopmail Perl script to 
auth the user against vpopmail's MySQL table, return the path to the 
user's Maildir and manipulate the filter file.


Latest code is at http://sourceforge.net/projects/serverfilters/, and 
from a quick glance at the docs apparently has virtual domains support 
built in.  Looks to use the same basic idea: setuid and haul needed data 
from a given MySQL table.

Yes, and it's with those where there's no alternative to qmail and 
vpopmail.
At least, through a brief search of freshmeat, sf.net and google, I 
couldn't find anything that comes near vpopmail+qmailadmin+vqadmin+qmail.


Have you looked at JAMM?  (http://jamm.sourceforge.net/)   Basically 
it's a Java web interface to an LDAP directory for virtual domains and 
users.  It's the same idea as vpopmail, but apparently works with any 
SMTP/POP3/IMAP server that supports LDAP (read: Postfix + Courier-IMAP 
from a glance over their HOWTO).

A previous admin here implemented a Postfix + Courier-IMAP + OpenLDAP + 
JAMM email solution for a client.  I haven't really poked through the 
box so I can't say much other than it works for their 8000-odd users and 
I've never had to troubleshoot it.  However, if I had to build a 
virtualized email box and for some reason couldn't use my usual qmail + 
vpopmail + qmailadmin combo, JAMM seems like an alternative.
