I don't mean to sound flippant, but you couldn't pick a bigger wheel to reinvent or one more pointless. If you must make your own, look on Google for one of the very many open source web projects that are out there to use as a starting point.

It is possible. You will need a SMTP and a POP/IMap servers. There are a ton of e-mail clients already written in php.

Here is a tutorial. http://www.devshed.com/c/a/PHP/Building-A-PHPBased-Mail-Client-part-1/
