The project is to design, and develop a new web-based email client. Similar to Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, Hotmail etc. The project will require design of the client, plus the adminstrative control panel which can automatically manage our orders allowing us to setup new email accounts and mailboxes - and another control panel for clients to manage their account and email settings.
The solution we are looking to build is not radical at all. It's something any provider on elance might have already created.
The system will be a hosted solution. That will allow users to access their email via our webmail system or through outlook, eudora, thunderbird or any other client via pop3, imap or smtp.
However, the webmail will include all the basic email features: Contact Manager, Spam Filtering, Virus Scanning, Adress Book, Attachments, Spell Checking, Calendar.
The adminsitrative system is a basic order management and client setup tool. The front end will allow potential clients to choose how many mailboxes they want, the size of the mailboxes they desire, provide the domain name for the email adresses, and to make a payment. The backend will approve payment, and automatically setup the mailboxes for the order.
The client will be able to login to their backend and setup and manage the names, passwords and setting for each of the email adresses and domains in their account.
We are looking for an AJAX, ASP.net webmail client, to run on our Microsoft Server - we need a firm that has proven specialty and ability with AJAX since its a new and exciting technology. Preference will be given to providers who already have created existing webmail systems and can provide actual demonstrations.

Sir, we have extensive experience in developing applications using .NET technology, especially web-based applications. We have reviewed the requirements posted for this project and following are our recommendations for the project: 1) We recommend using c# with MSSQL 2000 as backend technology for the entire application. 2) Create a separate sub-portal for users who will be able to access it using their login credentials. You could set business rules in the backend to define restricted or complete access to product catalogue to users selectively. 3) We can build the front-end of this application using Flash and ASP.net. 4) We can also build the application to dynamically generate PDFs from contents added through the CMS. 5) As regards Newsletter application, we can provide facility to create Newsletters that can be sent by email and/or fax. The application can also track the users who have viewed the newsletters or clicked on links within the newsletter. This will enable you to strategically plan your moves based on links that have been clicked by users. We can build the system to generate RSS feed so that users can directly get the information from the site. 6) The Content Management system that we will build will allow any user to update contents through the portal. We could also have a workflow integrated to get necessary approvals before the content is published to the website. We are very keen to work on this project and would like to chat with you on how we can start working together. Though we are located in India, please be assured that we will be available at all times to answer your queries and clarify your doubts. Kindly send us a message so that we can discuss the project at length. Please visit us at www.arumugainfosystems.com. Thanks
