As mentioned in the bug report, this is incorrect if you want to use  
Horde defaults for username/password.  That's because you are  
explicitly overwriting the default username/password passed in since,  
as mentioned in the documentation, *any *parameter in IMP's 'smtp'  
configuration array will overwrite the default value.  (This was  
broken in pre-6.1 versions of IMP, so the above *might* have worked by  
happenstance.)

In fact... if you are using Horde defaults, you don't need to define  
an 'smtp' entry in config/backends.local.php at all.
