since the only one who knows for sure is whoever set it up, the best
answer would come from the person/persons that set it up.

A fairly normal setup would have you authenticating not to horde but via
your imap/pop server so if you have settings that you use to get email
off the same server, (i.e. pop3 accounts), the same user id and password
may very likely be what you need to use.
