[imp] IMP 3.0 troubles with logging in

With a very similar setup, I had a very similar problem.  My issue ended 
up being that the sessions wern't being saved, since it couldn't write 
to where it wanted to save them.  I ended up (somewhat randomally) 
choosing /var/state/horde/ for the sessions.  I just created that, and 
made www-data the owner of it, and changed the session save path in 
/etc/php4/apache/php.ini and some apache config file I had.

I also have the "horde refuses to log" issue.  If you solve that one, 
let me know :)
