That was the problem.

I did in fact see errors that imp_pref didn't exist.  I changed it to
horde_prefs and it worked.
There is still the issue that my old address book and identity databases
are hosed, but at least we can move forward now.
I do have a backup of the FILES from my old hosed horde database dir...
I can actually view the contents of the file and see a few lines of
readable data, so I may be able to salvage some of the addresses by hand.

Do you (or anybody else on the list) happen to know if there's an easier
way to salvage the data than vi-ing the file and selecting out readable
lines by hand?  Right now, it's full of ^@^@ characters.
Luckily, I don't have much data to go through if that's what it comes down
to.

Did I mention thank you?
Well, Thank you!  :)
