There is no "better"; do you have an existing IMAP server with all of your users
that you want to re-use? Or do you want to create and manage accounts from
scratch? That'd answer it, for me.

For IMAP, it'd look something like this:

$conf['auth']['driver'] = 'imap';
$conf['auth']['params']['dsn'] = '{imap.server/imap:143}INBOX';

For SQL:

$conf['auth']['driver'] = 'sql';
$conf['auth']['params']['phptype'] = 'mysql';
$conf['auth']['params']['hostspec'] = 'localhost';
$conf['auth']['params']['username'] = 'horde';
$conf['auth']['params']['password'] = '*******';
$conf['auth']['params']['database'] = 'horde';
$conf['auth']['params']['table'] = 'auth';
