Oh, a quick follow-up.  I just tried reloading the compose window with 
firebug enabled and found that /imp/core/loader.js is returning a 404 
not found error.

I checked our file system and the debian install doesn't even have a 
"core" dir in imp, much less a file /imp/core/loader.js.

I also searched the entire /usr/share/horde/ and /usr/share/php/Horde 
dirs for any file named loader.js and it does not exist.  So possibly 
this is a debian install issue?
