authentication is controlled by setup which is an administrator function
and not selectable by the user for obvious reasons.

if you don't have access to edit the configuration, you need to appeal
to those who do to configure it to use the IMP application to
authenticate all other horde applications and you will not have to login
twice.

In fact, the user 'options' in the various modules are all that is
available to those without complete administrator access to the php
files themselves.
