Hi Michael,

the process is not trivial. You should be able to rename the username in 
horde/admin/users.php.

However, I am not sure which of these items, if any, are being taken 
care of:

- Permissions (horde_perms) must be transferred from the old UID to the 
new UID
- Preferences must be transfered
- Share ownership must be changed for all the apps individually: In the 
SQLNG backend, these are the $app_sharesng tables - in the SQL backend, 
it's $app_shares
- Same for delegated access to shares (see $app_sharesng_users)
- Group membership also must be transferred

Depending on which backends you use and which level of access you (or 
horde) have to them, this can be easier or harder.
