Top-posting is replying ABOVE the text from the emails earlier in the  
thread.  After hitting "reply", just put your cursor on the next line  
after the last word written in the previous email, and start typing  
there.  That way, the older messages are listed first, and the newer  
ones last, i.e., everything is read in order.  Most list maintainers  
prefer that you bottom-post.


If you log in as a horde administrator, go to "Administration" then  
"configuration", click horde, then go to the logging tab.  If you  
choose syslog, then the output should go to /var/log/messages or  
/var/log/syslog (or where ever your system keeps such things, varies  
from distro to distro), if you click "File", then it should be under  
/tmp. I think it is called horde.log.  I think that this is what you  
are looking for.  Hope that helps.
