Cypht (pronounced "sift") is a lightweight, open-source collaborative email and news reader written in PHP and JavaScript. Its primary goal is to consolidate multiple communication streams into a single, unified interface without replacing your existing accounts.

The main features of this tool include:

• Unified Communications Dashboard: It provides combined views for the Inbox, Unread, Sent, and Flagged messages across all connected email accounts and RSS feeds.

• Multi-Account Management: Users can move or copy emails from one account to another and search through all accounts and feeds simultaneously using a single form.

• Standard and Advanced Email Support: It functions as a standard client for managing IMAP folders and sending SMTP messages, while also supporting Sieve email filtering to organize your inbox automatically while offline.

• Flexible Composition: Messages can be composed in Plain Text, HTML, or Markdown, with Markdown automatically converted to HTML before sending.

• Entirely Modular Architecture: The application is built completely of "module sets" (plugins), allowing for deep customization and the addition of new features—like GitHub or WordPress integration—without hacking the core code.

• Flexible Authentication and Storage: It supports various authentication methods (IMAP, LDAP, DB, or auto-discovery) and can store session data in PDO-compatible databases or flat files on the server.

• Lightweight and Accessible: It is designed to be efficient enough for ISPs, schools, or personal use and includes a simple translation system that supports Right-to-Left (RTL) languages.

• Security Focused: The project maintains a modular design where even the core components can be overridden for site-specific security needs, and the team actively encourages community security reviews.
