[Dovecot] [OT] preferred clients

[Thomas Berezansky]

Personally, I am using Horde (http://www.horde.org/) at work (this  
address) and Outlook 2007 at home (largely due to getting freaky  
attachments I need to open on a regular basis that only Microsoft mail  
clients seem to be able to open properly).

Horde is a webmail client, and works well in Firefox (where you can  
open the left hand menu in a sidebar separate from your tabs). I  
install it with the calendar, notes, tasks, etc included and we tell  
our users to log into it in order to change their passwords.
