Hi,

We're using imap servers for an authentication. I'm trying to implement
automatic imap server selection/detection for authentication, but I wasn't
able to find any tutorial about it for IMP5. An article in
http://wiki.horde.org/ImapSelect seems like is "out of date". So I have
some questions:

Which application should alter authentication server's string to the right
one - weather the preauthenticate function must be defined in
horde/config/hooks.php, or in horde/imp/config/hooks.php?

It depends on if you are using IMAP authentication (Horde) or IMP application authentication (IMP). If your primary usage of the Horde installation is IMP, you should ALWAYS be using IMP application authentication.

If IMP app should
handle this, then what must be done to call this hook function? If I define
simple function
      public function preauthenticate($userId, $credentials) { return
false; }
in imp/config/hooks.php, I can see it is never called.

No, that should cause any IMP authentication to fail. Which I can verify happens.

Which variables must be set so IMP can know where to try to authenticate?
Probably this piece of code won't do the work:
 // Set IMAP server values.
         foreach (array('server', 'folders', 'namespace') as $key) {
             $_SESSION['imp'][$key] = $servers[$server[0]][$key];
         }

No. This won't work with IMP 5. The comments in imp/config/hooks.php clearly explain that you need to set the 'server' parameter in the preauthenticate hook.
