Why don't you configure sendmail to relay mail to your ISP's smtp server?
That would be the best solution as it works with all local mail programs
and you can send mail even if you are disconnected for some reason.

Yes, you configured horde/config/horde.php to use sendmail for sending mail
instead of smtp.
