Such a file doesn't exist and isn't supported.

I thought you were *not* using IMP authentication in Horde, but SQL  
authentication?

You cannot make up your own settings here and expect they would do  
anything beside breaking things.

You cannot use IMP authentication in Horde and Horde authentication in  
IMP. That's a circular dependency.
