[horde] problems login in to horde webmail

[Gyanchand Maurya]

Hi Murray,


I thing your databse is proper otherwise you con't get login screen,

just open your horde/imp/config/server.php file and check whether you have
set your donain name proper.

something like this.

$servers['imap'] = array(
    'name' => 'IMAP Server',
    'server' => 'localhost',
    'hordeauth' => true,
    'protocol' => 'imap/notls',
    'port' => 143,
    'maildomain' => 'domainname',
    'smtphost' => 'localhost',
    'smtpport' => 25,
    'realm' => 'domainname',
    'preferred' => 'domainname',

Cheers
Gyan
