After tinkering with a few settings I found I could get things working 
by turning off the Virtual INBOX and use IMAP subscribe instead in the 
horde/imp/config/prefs.php as follows:


// display Virtual INBOX?
$_prefs['use_vinbox'] = array(
     'value' => 0,
     'locked' => false,
     'shared' => false,
     'type' => 'checkbox',
     'desc' => _("Display Virtual Inbox?"));

// use IMAP subscribe?
$_prefs['subscribe'] = array(
     'value' => 1,
     'locked' => false,
     'shared' => false,
     'type' => 'checkbox',
     'desc' => _("Use IMAP folder subscriptions?"));
