What you're talking about ( especially point no 3 ) doesn't concern Horde/IMP 
itself, but proper PHP installation on your machine.
I'm sure that php files types recognition issue is covered by basic php 
installation manual.
In the same manner your apache don't know shtml files until you 
uncomment the proper handlers.
