SquirrelMail - http://www.squirrelmail.org/screenshots.php
Nutsmail - http://www.nutsmail.com/xpbluesky_skin.htm
TOS of Nutsmail - http://nutsmail.com/orders/terms_of_service.php

Standard SquirrelMail package does not support skins. It supports only color
themes (set of 16 different colors) and basic CSS. If people want to get
same level of customization as the one seen in Nutsmail screenshots, they
have to modify scripts licensed under GPL.

I have enough knowledge about SquirrelMail internals and can prove that
Nutsmail had to modify GPLed scripts. I can even name modified scripts and
functions.

The ones who read Slashdot articles will toast my website first.

I will contact lawyers after contacting SquirrelMail contributors.
