It doesn't matter what you set the locale to, if the locale isn't installed.

Then this is the preferred language set by your browser, but it's not  
supported by Horde and maybe not by your system either (see above).  
I'm not even sure how the language got so far in the code, other than  
on the login screen, because logging in should only be possible with  
one of the languages we actually support.

Well, that's an important information too. Windows' locale support  
isn't actually very good, so some date formats may not be available to  
you at all. And frankly, I haven't tested a recent Horde version on a  
Windows system in years, so I'm not even sure if it still works.
