I Upgraded from Horde Webmail - I think 5.2.4 (can I get this anywhere 
from the files of the backup I made before upgrading? I'd then verify 
and post it here because I don't know exactly ATM). Here comes an 
extract of the Webserver log, taken when accessing the prefs pages

I'd take the sledgehammer only when absolutely needed
