In HEAD, you don't need to define this.  You simply need to tell it
you want to use SMTP authentication in horde/config/horde.php by
setting the 'auth' param.  The code is in IMP.php and reads:

        /*
         * If SMTP authentication has been requested, populate the username and
         * password fields based on the current values for the user.
         *
         * Note that we assume that the username and password values from the
         * current IMAP / POP3 connection are valid for SMTP authentication as
         * well.
         */
        if (!empty($params['auth'])) {
            $params['username'] = $imp['user'];
            $params['password'] = Secret::read(Secret::getKey('imp'), $imp['pass']);
        }

However, this code is not in the non-head code.  So, since this code seems
to stand fairly independently of the rest, you can try something like
patching horde/imp/compose.php as follows

<          if (!empty($imp['smtphost'])) {
<              $conf['mailer']['params']['host'] = $imp['smtphost'];
<          }
<          $mailer = &Mail::factory($conf['mailer']['type'],
$conf['mailer']['params']);

>          }
>          $mailer = &Mail::factory($conf['mailer']['type'],
$conf['mailer']['params']);

(where the last line is wrapped in both cases for email purposes, unwrap
it when patching the file)

Hope that helps!
