Re: [cobalt-users] detailed instructions for IMP (WebMail)?

[Cobalt <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mike,

I installed Horde/IMP 2.2.3 and it works fine!

Will be all right.

The .rpm is a pre-release and told to be beta. So, take the tar ball.

It really doesn't matter where you install horde/imp: Just follow the
instructions.

I can only tell, MySQL is working great.

If you follow the instructions step by step, there will be no problem. Set
up PHPLIB as mentioned in the installantion guide, especially if you run
PHP3. There are only two setting in the php.ini and possibly some in the
auto-prepend file (prepend.php3, I think).

If you do anything wrong, the horde framework will tell you while trying.

Good luck!
