I'm cc:ing the dev list on the reply.

Testing is great. If you want to be helpful to the project, however,  
rather than compiling a list, you should create tickets on  
bugs.horde.org for each logical issue.

This is all a matter of configuration. You can choose to use a SMTP  
server instead. You might need tweaks to PEAR's Mail package, but ...  
not much to do with Horde here.

I'm sorry, you lost me. Ingo executes the "ls" program on the command line?

As I said, testing is great, especially if you can create tickets with  
enough information in them for developers to reproduce the problem.  
Patches are great too, but we very much appreciate tickets that are  
reproduceable.
