Overview
Horde is a powerful web-based groupware client that provided basic Kolab support for years. In 2006 and 2007 the Kolab specific parts have been rewritten and finally transformed Horde into a fully compatible Kolab client.
Some of the features:
- A feature rich web mail client
- Address manager
- Professional calendar management and resource booking
- Todo lists
- Note editor
- Team collaboration via shared access to mailboxes and groupware features
Setup
As a user there will be no setup requirements. Just ask your administrator for the URL of the Horde installation, fire up your browser and start to use the software. If you are the administrator of a Kolab server you will find the necessary setup instructions here:
