I assume your server where Horde lives, is on the internal network and
has an IPv4 address in the RFC-1918 (= private) range (192.168.0.0/16,
172.16.0.0/20 or 10.0.0.0/8) and is reachable from outside through
port forwarding from an external (= non-private) IPv4 address. In that
case, all you need to do is to make sure the DNS server your internal
users use, returns the private address for lookups from internal
clients. Alternatively, you could setup your router to forward
requests from internal clients to the external IPv4 address to the
internal IPv4 address. If this is possible depends on the router
you're using.
If your LAN and server are IPv6 enabled, there usually is nothing you
need to do.
If you need more information, Google for 'split brain DNS' or 'split
horizon DNS'. This is really more networking related, than Horde.
