I'm seeing this from time to time also but didn't had the time to take a 
closer look at it. Does anyone step forward? Or try to find out steps how 
to exactly reproduce it?

What I found out so far that it seems to be fixed (at least until the next 
maintenance periode) if once login directly to imp instead of horde. Or 
logout and in again with the icon in the imp menu.

No, not in this case.

Yes, that should be possible.
