On the page Authentication Settings in the Horde cconfiguration under
"$conf[auth][driver]" I have "HTTP (Basic Authentication/.htpasswd)
authentication".  Is there something else I need to change?

Not intentionally. I have looked through the Horde and Imp
confifuration and I do not find any place to require users to login
separately to email.

Does it make a different if true/false are included in single-quotes?

Yes. That was I typo when I changed the real domain in the email.

I though that I disabled it in backends.local.php with this line:
    'secure' => 'false',

What would be correct for HTTP authentication?

Hmmmm.....Why then am I getting the error message "Server does not
support TLS connections"?
