We used horde based mail until it started having severe browser issues with some versions of MS IE
Then we moved to ISMail, which worked until MS patched IE, then it broke too
So we had some users on horde and some on ISMail
that was annoying, people kept forgetting what to use
so then we moved to Squirrelmail, which has no features really, other than working right
The issues above weren't with horde or ISMail - although I REALLY liked ISMail - it was with stupid people internally who didn't keep their browsers up to date, and MS for creating new bugs when fixing old ones
i haven't had any issues in almost 2 years of squirrelmail
In the "For what its worth" department, if you have MS IE users and are providing SSL to them (like say, via https:), you *REALLY* need to know and understand IE's SSL bustedness with regard to keep-alives and such:
http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_faq.html#ToC49
Addressing that fixed all the problems I had with IE users a while ago. Horde just happens to hit that magic condition a lot with IE. After turning keepalives off for MSIE, complaints stopped about Horde not working.
