I finally figured out how to get it working with Debian 
packages...although I am not sure I did it correctly.

I regressed the debian ckeditor package to 3.6.1 which is in stable. (I 
could also download ckeditor from source, but I am trying to keep this 
as close to a "stock Debian" setup as possible.)

Then I reinstalled the Debian php-horde-editor and php-horde-imp 
packages and made sure all the sym links I had added over the past weeks 
were gone.

Then I tested to see what was not being loaded successfully.  Nothing 
was being loaded by /imp/core, so I added this sym link to point 
imp/core to Horde's ckeditor directory:

horde/imp/core -> horde/js/ckeditor

After that, everything was loaded successfully except 
/imp/core/ckeditor_base.js.  However, somewhere in the past few days of 
looking at ckeditor source code I noticed that 
javascript/ckeditor_source.js had this comment: "Compressed version of 
core/ckeditor_base.js."

So I added a sym link in horde/js/ckeditor/:

ckeditor_base.js -> javascript/ckeditor/ckeditor_source.js

And all the files now load successfully and the HTML editor comes up in 
the Imp email compose window.

So I will see if the Debian package maintainer can modify the install 
for php-horde-editor to add the sym links for 
horde/js/ckeditor/ckeditor_base.js and horde/imp/core.  Or perhaps he 
knows a better way to handle this.

Thanks for everyone's help.
