Well, I figured it out.  As usual, it is something I was doing wrong.   
I have my horde install in a /webmail.new/ folder in web server.  So,  
for example, it's <url>/webmail.new/.  In my registry.local.php, I had  
this in there...

--
$this->applications['horde']['webroot'] = '/webmail.new';
$this->applications['imp']['webroot'] = '/webmail.new';

$app_fileroot = '/var/www/webmail.new/';
--

I commented out the imp.webroot line and things started working.  I'm  
not sure where I got that line from, but that was the trick.  Things  
are working better now.  Sorry for the bother!
