[horde] Activesync Webmail configuration in lighttpd

Make sure that there are not other alias.url entries loaded by  
lighttpd AFTER this statement. Likewise, any alias.url statements  
before this one will be overwritten. Either combine them all into one  
statement or use lightty's "+=" syntax to append them. E.g.:

alias.url += ("/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync" => "/var/www/horde/rpc.php")

Also, make sure that (if needed) you are doing this for the correct  
host. I.e., If you serve multiple hosts/domains and only  
mail.example.com should answer ActiveSync requests then these need to  
go in an appropriate block as so:

$HTTP["host"] =~ "^mail\.example\.com$" {

    //

}

These are likely from OL trying to find an appropriate location to  
obtain AutoDiscover information. There is a entire flowchart that  
clients (should) follow to do this.
