Ah, you see, not one of those reasons even remotely interests me, which is
why I won't be migrating to Horde any time soon. There shouldn't be any
config files -- I should just install it, visit the web page, and log in
with a username and password. I want to read mail, not look at calendars
or run a todo list or anything like that. And beautiful doesn't interest
me in an interface; usable interests me, and as far as I can tell, Horde
still suffers from the "click in the checkboxes and then click the delete
button"  and "click 'Inbox' and wait for the server to send it to you"
failings of all webmail applications. So I'll stick with Squirrelmail, as
while it's certainly no better, it isn't any worse either.
