what about MySQL support?

IMAP Support: No is certain to be fatal. I am uncertain about DOM XML:
No - I have used RH stuff and it includes it by default. 

When you are talking about 'shared server' does that mean that you can't
get a newly compiled version of php installed that includes IMAP and DOM
XML support?

You need to install this - command line (from memory) pear install
Mail_Mime or you can download the tiny tarball from pear.php.net if your
system doesn't support that method. I would bet that horde/docs/INSTALL
also heavily suggest a few other pear updates besides Mail_Mime but it
too is a must have.

not a case of majority rules - some of the missing items are fatal

I wouldn't rename any of the tables - probably too much to dig but you
can name the db anything you want as long as you configure it in
horde/config/horde.php and horde/imp/config/servers.php etc.

You give no information of your setup for authentication - not that it
matters since I am certain that IMAP support in PHP absolute.

stands to reason - you need IMAP support - there should be a
/tmp/horde.log that has more details and obviously you would want to
check your httpd/error.log httpd/access.log for more details.
