FYI - contacts/favouriteRecipients provides an API interface to access
the most frequently emailed recipients.

Wow. That's old. You don't mention what version of Horde your new
install is, but it is VERY unlikely that just copying the old
directory over would work. Assuming that your new Horde install is a
recent 3.3.x install, just grab the most recent stable IMP tarball and
install in /horde/imp
