So it does make sense to allow for a system to define transport  
authentication credentials outside of the configuration file (due to  
bootstrapping concerns).  Therefore, in Ingo 3, I have just committed  
code that adds a 'transport_auth' hook that replaces the old  
'hordeauth', 'password', and 'username' parameters that used to be  
contained in backends.php.

This should fix your personal issue.
