+ 
+ I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
+    ==================
+ 
+ Newest Horde cannot be installed on RedHat 7.3 which is critical but an
+ acceptable answer is to say try this X.Y.Z older revisions of Horde/IMP
+ So is anyone using Redhat 7.3 with an older Horde/IMP combo?
+ Saying to use an older version of Redhat is not an acceptable answer.
+ 
+ Thank You Kindly, Arthur   
+ 
+ 
+ II. SUMMARY
+     =======
+ 
+ I performed a thorough search and confirmed that no admins have sucessfully
+ installed horde-2.1 / imp-3.1.  As you know it is difficult to prove the
+ negative, so this bug can be solved by someone comming forward with the
+ steps needed for success.
+ 
+ I could give you a better detailed decription of why imap does not work
+ but I could fix it myself if you provided some guidance on how to debug the
+ imap_open() php function call.
+ 
+ Anyway, In aniticaption of you asking for details, I tried every solution
+ proposed by horde and non-horde team members such is changing 'imap/nols'
+ to 'imap' and confirming multiple .php configuration files.
+ 
+ My websearch research has uncovere the same bits of advise to many RedHat 7.3
+ complaintants.  Here goes:

+ III. DETAILED TECHNICAL INFORMATION
+      ==============================
+ 
+ /* a. RedHat 7.3 /var/log/maillog: */
+ 
+ Sep 24 13:16:08 xxx imapd[1348]: imap service init from 127.0.0.1
+ Sep 24 13:16:08 xxx imapd[1348]: Command stream end of file, while reading line 
+ user=??? host=UNKNOWN
+ 
+ 
+ /* registry.php is properly passing the horde login to imp */
+ /* mysql database has a proper horde username and md5 password */
+ /* next step seems to be to debug imap_open() which is returning null */
+ 
+ I updated ipchains to allow imap and pop3 through the firewall
+ but same error occurs
+ 
+ /* b. http://xxx.yyy.com/horde/test.php: */
+ 
+ /* note that "PostgreSQL Support: No " is No because I had
+    a crazy idea that perhaps having both MySQL and another database
+    might be the culprit, but setting it ti No had no effect
+ */
+ 
+ /* also note that I installed mcrypt but it did not
+    change from a No to a Yes below.  Note mcrypt itself as issues
+    with ./configure saying it will work with a library that is
+    greater than or equal a version 0.8.5 but in fact dies with any
+    version greater than 0.8.5
