[horde] Help for a novice?

I cannot imagine how to install, and maintain, a complex
application framework, such as Horde and its applications,
without having full access to the computer where you install
it. So, if "they simply do not allow it", you will have to
- either find another system to install your Horde/Imp
   application,
- or get the owners of that server to install, configure,
   and maintain the horde/imp installation for you, and
   all their other customers.

Note however, that Horde/Imp need not be installed on the
mail server. It is simply an e-mail client; all it needs
is an HTTP server (with a lot of features, as outlined in
the INSTALL documents), and remote access to an e-mail
server, via the standard e-mail protocols.

Note also that Imp is designed as an e-mail client for
simultaneous use by all users that have access-rights on a
particular e-mail server (or even on several e-mail servers).
If you are looking for an e-mail client for your personal
use, you may be better of with a personal e-mail client,
such as Mozilla Thunderbird, to be installed on your own
computer.

Best wishes,
