You might want to try the one character patch at:

http://cvs.horde.org/diff.php/horde/lib/Horde.php?r1=1.118.2.42&r2=1.118.2.43&ty=u

if you haven't already.

You might try adding:

$conf['log']['ident'] = 'HORDE';

though I'm not sure if it is needed or not for file logging.

Hmmm.  Above you say "/tmp/horde.log" and here you show "/var/log/horde.log"
which is a problem.  Also, check that the directory (/tmp or /var/log) has
sufficient permissions.

See above.  Could be config, could be permissions, could be bug.
