 Works for me here, same IMP/horde/apache/Soalrs versions. I get bumped
 back to the login screen, with the additional text
  Either you have logged in incorrectly or your login
           has expired. Please login again.

 Have checked the mail logs on the machine that runs the imap server?
 You should see something like
