I had several ideas about Horde, but actually it was quicker for me to
use slrn via ssh... Anyway, it's not always possible to get a SSH
connection, and in this case Troll might be useful again.

I would prefer to keep Troll as a Horde app., so that it remains
synchronized with the framework.

And a last argument: there exist several other webmails, with good
address books, web calendars, etc., but there exist only a few webnews,
and they are not very good.

P.S.: I'm not sure about a lower use of Usenet. At least on Usenet-fr
(no binary groups), the stats are available at
<http://www.crampe.eu.org/statfr/tout.html>
and one can read that 373230 messages have been posted between
2005-11-01 and 2006-01-01 by 14075 posters.
