About the Virtual Appliance
This virtual appliance/machine includes a full working installation of Horde Groupware Webmail Edition. The only two applications installed in addition to the application dependencies are Joe (a simple text editor) and VMware Tools.
Horde Groupware was installed in accordance to the official guideline available here.
We strongly discourage you against using this appliance in production. It is intended to be a simple turn-key solution for users and administrators who want to take a closer look at Horde Groupware without having to spend time on configuring it.
The virtual appliance was created with VMware Server 2, but should work in most recent VMware applications, such as VMware Fusion, VMware Player and VMware Workstation.
