yes, this looks like the initial ActiveSync call

That's a strange one - I don't see that in my logs. Looks like your  
client switched to http-based log-in.

These two don't belong here - probably your web client on another machine.

judging by the time stamp, that's a different access to Horde - your  
server logs ought to show what was going on at that time.

My client let's me set the user name to use - and hands it to the  
server as-is. I know there are means to do username mapping inside  
Horde, which could be used to work around a broken client, but I've  
never toyed with those, so others would have to jump in.

In general, it looks like the client is trying to do a Windows style  
domain login. If you cannot configure your client to log in as your  
server demands, my best bet is that you'll have to look into  
server-side user mapping...

Jens
