As there is no example available as far as i can see, one have to be a  
PHP/Horde coder to do it and it looks like it is nothing to explain in  
a short mail :-(
So for our userbase we resort to set it by hand for every account, but  
i still wonder why such a simple task is that difficult to achieve.
