Well, perhaps, but others (hopefully more) want to help you, ;-)

That isn't a script or program, it's a "patch file" and you feed it into
the "patch" program.  The command-line arguments to patch depend on what
operating system you're using... a Linux distribution?  Solaris?  Let us
know and we can complete the thought.

I don't think you'll be able to do this using any existing Horde/IMP
feature, but you could write some extra PHP code in the LDAP section of
IMP to do what you want.  Depending on how your LDAP database is
structured, you might be able to take advantage of a separate base DN for
the search for each domain to make that task easier.
