[horde] Saving Contact Details from Email

[bin at crewecleanteam.co.uk]

Firstly, I apologise if I am 'top-posting'.  I do not understand what  
this means and am simply replying to the email from Jan Schneider.

Secondly, thank you for the reply, Jan.

I have not copied anything as I do not have access to anything.  The  
Horde implementation I use is hosted by the people who host my website  
- Horde is provided by them.  It worked fine until the 5.1.1 release,  
since when it has become almost unusable.  The address book and  
calendar are no longer shareable.  There just aren't enough  
exclamation marks in the world.  I believe a security issue was  
discovered in the software that meant that the world and his good lady  
wife could access the details of my community group members.

Are you suggesting that my hosting company has made an error while  
upgrading the software?  What is the procedure here?  Are you able to  
check the implementation and offer advice?

Thank you,

Dave.
