Sure - its not problem to do either.
First, there is a preference to take care of the double auth prob.
Go to setup->horde->authentication and at the bottom there is an option:
* What backend should we use for authenticating users to Horde?
Pick IMP and you should be good to go.
Second, HORDE allows you to write hooks (see horde/config/hooks.php) which allow
you to write custom code that can set preference values or be called as certain
time.
A combination of using the postauthenticate hook and the fullname/from_addr hook
will do exactly what you want.
Read the hooks.php and pref.php files in both HORDE and IMP and see if you
understand how these plug together - it's pretty simple to pick-up.
Then go the wiki and i believe there are a few entries on doing this with LDAP.
If you still have questions drop em on this list and i'll dig up my samples for you.

Hi,
I have successfully got Horde Framework to authenticate against my LDAP.
However, I now get the login prompt when a users clicks on "Mail".
I would quite like Horde to pass the details to IMP when the users go to
IMP, rather than having to log in twice. Do I need to rewrite the
scripts to do this or have I missed an option somewhere?
Also, can I get IMP to take the user's details (name, e-mail address,
etc.) from the LDAP?
Thanks for reading,
Steve
