CPanel and Webmail

This CPanel thing is so cool and so compelling, I fear for my job based on the sudden blow my productivity at work has taken. Frankly, I actually understand very little of it. One thing I was curious about, though, was webmail and I thought I'd throw some questions out to the community as a whole because it might be useful for others and I found nothing on point in the archives. I hope these questions are not too basic.

When I click on "webmail", I am offered the choice between: Neomail; Horde; and, Squirrel Mail. How does one choose between the three? Does anyone have any particular recommendations to make?

Also, is webmail something you find useful or desirable? Is it duplicative of, say, Gmail or any other web based email service?

Thanks in advance!

1 The various webmail selections are just portals to your pop email server. They all do the same thing, just with different interfaces. You can set up email accounts with name@randompensees.mu.nu and then use the webmail interfaces to check them no matter where you are.

2 Thanks, Jim. I appreciate it. I have, fleetingly, achieved clarity on something. I may as well now shut it down for the rest of the day as this may prove to be my high point!

3 I'd recommend you go with horde - it is easily the most powerfulof the three and is very easy to use!
