Wird (php.ini?)! Verify Horde files permissions, in general they  
should belong to web server user (see docs), at least config.php so  
you can modify it via web (administration).

You must see all configuration tabs of Horde and applications and set  
your options accordingly. See "Administration -> Configuration ->  
Horde -> Authentication -> $conf[auth][admins]" and provide users that  
can administrate Horde (at least your login, so you can use and  
administrate Horde).

> One question only;

What do you mean by "migrating the mailboxes from pop3/smtp to dovecot  
and Horde"? Horde has no mailboxes, it uses your system (Dovecot and  
you Mailer) to read and send mails.
