I got around this issue by putting the following line in my httpd.conf 
file for Apache (Assuming you're using Apache):


RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/horde/imp/(.*).png /tmp/$1.png


Which does a rewrite of the URL internally to apache (so the users don't 
see it), keeps /tmp out of your webtree and only redirects for .png 
requests. (You have to have mod_rewrite enabled in Apache too, I guess)
