I'm glad that you got everything working, but you should know that  
Horde-3.1.4 is a fairly old version. You also didn't mention what  
version of any of the applications (like IMP) you installed, but if  
that is from the same time-frame, then that too is fairly outdated.   
We just released Horde 3.3 and IMP H3 4.3 which fixes a *lot* of  
things, including many security issues. See http://horde.org for more  
information, including download information for the new versions.



Thanks,
mike
