Its funny you bring this up.  I help out with IMP (a horde module -
http://www.horde.org/imp), and the creator of Jonah (Chuck Hagenbuch) is
an extremely smart feller.  Chances are he has a LOT invisioned for this.

"This is just the beginning - Jonah will eventually have a complete
my.netscape style portal frontend, and as many backend content sources as
people are interested in. But I'll need some help for all that to happen,
so... "

We could throw together something php specific, but to use this (i havent
looked at the code) you would have to have horde installed.

Right now nearly ALL development right now (within the Horde project) is
on the web-based email portion of it (IMP -
http://www.horde.org/imp).  I would highly suggest joining the horde
project in their efforts if you like/want something like this.
