Michael,

I have found using ldap for Horde Authentication is a bit more flexible 
and I also us it for courier authentication with the 'hordeauth' => 
'full',
in horde/imp/conf/servers.php
never had a problem from horde, courier nor ldap that i didn't cause. ;)

It seems much easier and if you are already setup with courier/ldap the 
rest is trivial.
