Yes MySQL support is ok.

Yes by shared server, I do mean I can't get a newly compiles version of PHP.
The hosting company installed PEAR and some other options for me though so
they may be willing to help me with any other items I'm missing. I thought
that you could IMAP or POP but looking at the documentation, I look to be
wrong there...

I was trying to get horde working with a log file prior to getting IMP or
mail working, though I will look into Mail_Mime to see how I can install it.

too bad it's hard to tell what is fatal

I have not renamed any tables but just included them into my DB, also since
I am only working on horde now and not IMP I do not have a
horde/imp/config/servers.php

I have tried authentication as both none and sql but nothing works, again
just trying to get the log working so I can get more information.

Since I'm on a shared server I do not have access to horde.log or the web
log directly.

I guess I may be trying to over extend my Hosting service.
