In horde/imp/config/defaults.php3, do you have anything in the
"$default->folders" variable?  The default is:

	$default->folders = 'mail/';

If so, does that directory exist in the user's home directory and
does the user have write permission for it?  In other words, if the
above value is set, the user's name is "fred" and his home directory
is "/home/fred", then you must have a directory "/home/fred/mail",
and that directory must be writable by fred:

   # ls -l /home/fred/*
   ...
   drwxr-xr-x fred fredgroup   4096  28 Dec 12:09 2000 /home/fred/mail

That could be part of it.
