There is a Zope component that connects to an IMAP server to provide a web oriented front end that can be accessed via HTTP, XML-RPC, and even FTP. The most common configuration is HTTP (via a fairly functional but very minimal web forms based interface).
I jokingly call it NotMail. Since being hired by the authors of Zope, I have not be able to pursue it to hard core, but Python, is as most of you know, is vey easy. Most of the core is done, there would just have to be some improvements made to get it to work with the new Zope version, 2.0b1, some threadsafing issues (2.0 is fully threaded) and of course, some cosmetic changes to the HTTP interface.
For an example of a Zope powered site, check out Technocrat.net.
