Hello Mike,
Thanks for your kind response.

Yes, there were some misconfiguration in conf.php file.  I have just
fixed it and can log in .
But I don't see any email folder here :-(
Regarding the server, it is suse 11 and the horde version is 3.1.4
I have installed horde through yast.

>From test.php there are information about some missing modules like

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Mail_Mime: *No*
*You do not have the Mail_Mime package installed on your system. See the
INSTALL file for instructions on how to install the package. THIS IS A
REQUIRED MODULE!

*MIME Magic Support (mime_magic): *No*
*The fileinfo PECL module (see above) or the mime_magic PHP extension
will most likely provide faster MIME Magic lookups than the built-in
Horde PHP magic code. See horde/docs/INSTALL for information on how to
install PECL/PHP extensions.

*Net_SMTP: *No*
*Make sure you are using the Net_SMTP module if you want "smtp" to work
as a mailer option.

but php5_pear-mail_mime is already installed here

I have no clue :-(  kindly enlighten me.
Thanks once again
