That would indeed point to a mis-configured server.

I am using "Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync"… Sorry for the typing error in my answer.
I did another test with another alias :  Alias /xx  /www/horde5/rpc.php
then in firefox : http://horde5.domain/xx
I get what it is expected (if I do understand)

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope><SOAP-ENV:Body><SOAP-ENV:Fault><faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Client</faultcode><faultstring>Bad Request</faultstring></SOAP-ENV:Fault></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

So it is only this alias "Alias /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync /www/horde5/rpc.php" that cause issue as though there is a conflict with the alias name  and something inside rpc.php.

Best regards
