[horde] Horde Groupware Webmail in BitNami

[beltran]

Hi Jan,

Thanks for your feedback. We will add the same configuration options 
that webmail-install script. We also add an option to configure with 
GMail easily and we will document how to configure it with Dovecot or 
other IMAP servers.

Regards,

Beltran
