The Crazy One
Huh? Clarify please.
There is no "mail OS". If you're talking about a client that runs on top of another OS, there are tons. Roundcube - Free webmail for the masses for example.
If you're referring to running a mail server, its not so simple and the fact that you had to ask likely makes it impractical for you to run and maintain it.

Writes binary right handed and hex left handed
PHP has built in functions for reading email from mail servers both wih POP3 and IMAP protocols, and sending with SMTP.

It's not by default built in PHP's core, and PEAR::MAIL, and PEAR::Mail_IMAP are the preferred classes to use.

Well, your IMAP link links to the mail extention in php: PHP: IMAP Functions - Manual, sure, it's not in the core, it's an extention, but it's there. So apparently, it's not the pear classes that is the preffered classes, as it is a dead project in pear, at least one of them.

Hmm this could be hard... You could go serious with full on linux mail servers all linked to PHP... You could find some easy to do tutorials online...
Or if you're feeling epic you could try making your own webmail server in C++(you could use other languages)..
(use command line that way you won't have the extra 10,000 lines that make the GUI work). If you did this i would suggest making it somewhat opensource (which would take all the strain of constant updates off your shoulders)

Please, write clearly with proper structure. Double spacing makes the text feel un-jointed, Capitalizing Every Word Means People Stop Before Every Word Sub-Consciously Which Is A Pain In The Backside, and use code tags! (The right most styling box).
