 +++ I just want web mail. Why do I need Horde?
 If you only need the functionality of one component, you can just install
that component; however, all of the components rely on common code in the
Horde package itself. Whether you install one component or all of them, you
need to install Horde. So, if you just want to offer web-based email (the
most common use of Horde applications thus far) you'd need to install Horde
and IMP.
+
+In response to the number of people that have asked this question the Horde
Project has released pre-packaged versions of Horde with all the basics. 
Known as [http://www.horde.org/groupware/ Horde Groupware] and
[http://www.horde.org/webmail/ Horde Groupware - Webmail Edition] these
packages can greatly speed the deployment process.  See http://www.horde.org
for more information.

 +++ How much does Horde cost?
 The Horde applications are **free**, having been released under the
[http://www.horde.org/licenses/ different open source licenses]. Those of
you familiar with open-source software can stop reading now. For those of
you who are used to paying for software, no, we're not kidding, it's really
free. And not only is it no-cost, but it's yours to modify and redistribute,
too; the only restriction is that you can't turn around and make it //not//
free. So, you can download Horde and components and install them on as many
computers as you want, and let as many users as you want use it, without
having to pay a penny to anyone, and you can make changes to the way it
looks or operates, either for local use or for redistribution.
