[ingo] Adding a default rule to prefs.php?

$_prefs['rules'] would be where you name the rule and enable or disable 
it.  Whatever you put in there will be an array of all the available 
default rules.

The easiest way I've found to do this is use a fresh account in your 
Horde install, login to that and create the rule and save it.  Then, 
pull the corresponding preference out of your preference backend and 
insert it into the value array under 'rules'.

You'll still need to find a way to activate the rule, depending on what 
you filtering backend you are using.  We are using Sieve, so that meant 
having the users go to the Ingo screen and just Save the rules, which 
pushed it to their mail account on the mail server.  I suppose you 
could write a maintenance task to do that, for initial login as well.
