simple answer - we need a mail reading tool without (sorry)  
distracting and pointless bells and whistles just because marketing  
people thinks that  "they look cool" and the "existing technologies  
allows it". I remember the discussions on the new interface of horde  
before the switch from 4 to 5 and whining that it looks obsolete.

We are using it for reading of the mail, not for the kindergarten  
entertainment.
There is even reason why we do not use the latest stable Horde, but  
around two years old version.

You may say - there are a lot of options. Yes, we know about them, so  
when time comes, we will be ready to dump Horde for something less  
bloated. If the need for webmail will not be dead as such by that  
time. Currently it is just convenient not to change.
