Simplified Horde and IMP installation
After my last post about how to update Windows to set Horde's IMP project as the default mailer, I went looking for a more simple solution. The proposed registry fix only works on certain machines (namely, Windows XP Home). Our client uses Firefox exclusively; it is a great standards-compliant browser, so I started looking at community developed extensions for Firefox.
As it turns out, a much better solution is to use the WebMailCompose Extension, and configure it to use Horde. It adds the capability to click on links within the browser, and automatically opens a new tab to compose a message at your choice of GMail, Yahoo Mail, Hotmail, Horde, and about 3 or 4 others. It also adds the shortcut Ctrl-M, which opens a new tab to compose a new message, or a mail viewer (in Tools->Read Mail).
Very slick!
