Making a web UI for Celeste ought to be very simple. It just depends on
how many features you want! :-)

Currently my setup is that we have (at Bluefish) an IMAP/POP3 server
with IMP (Web frontend) installed. When I am at work I pop from there
into Celeste and remove the mails from the server. When I am home I use
IMP which means I can't access my complete Celeste db but I can read any
new mails since I left work.

And if I am at home for a longer period I just suck my whole Celeste db
over to my home computer and run it there instead. :-) Rsync would of
course make that faster but I haven't bothered trying yet.
