Hi Jan
I have exactly the same problem as you. I have a single server which is
supposed to handle email with Postfix for IMAP and horde.
Horde and dovecot are on the same host, so horde connects to localhost.
The experts can't see why I am having a problem, but I've been chasing my
tail for a week! Must be getting old.

Hi guys,
Very new to horde webmail and evaluating the product.
I have installed:
Horde (horde) 5.0.4
Mail (imp) 6.0.4
Dovecot 2.0.9
Basically trying to get to a point in which I can create users and they
can
login and send mails to each other. Thought it would be simple but I have
been stuck for the last two days.
I installed Horde just fine, was able to access the UI and configure the
Database (using mysql).
Where I run into a problem is the authentication part. The only way I was
able to configure it so it would allow me to create users was via SQL
authentication and providing the exact field names in my table within my
mysql database.
This is all fine and dandy but when I try to access mail, on the portal
page
I see: "User is not authorized for imp" . When I click on Mail, i get a
login page and an error in my backend log:
HORDE: User is not authorized for imp
Then i check the messages log:
[imp] Error connecting to mail server. [13] Permission denied
So at this point, I realize I need imp to work. I go to configurations,
Mail, and within the tabs I see, there isn't much to configure. The
important tab I think would've been Server, but when I click the dropdown
in
server list (NONE, SHOWN, HIDDEN), i get nothing.
Reading the install guide for IMP, I realize I need an IMAP Server, so I
run
off and install Dovecot which I create a new user table called mailbox
along
with numerous other configurations and can telnet into it fine (telnet
localhost 143) and I see the dovecot syntax:
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE
STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready.
(Using plain auth for now b/c this is just a test machine)
a login admin xxxxx
a OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE
SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT
CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC
ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS] Logged in
At this point, I'm not sure what to do. How do I get IMP to play nicely
with Dovecot and show me my mailboxes on Horde?
I tried the IMP test.php and filled in the fields but all i get back is:
Error connecting to mail server.
And do you get a connection attempt on the IMAP server? If not, do you
have Horde and Dovecot installed on different hosts? By default Horde
connects to localhost.
What is in your imp/config/backends.local.php file? If you don't have
one, there is your problem.
By default, IMP will use TLS secured IMAP connections through
localhost (see the comments in imp/config/backends.php). If you have
not installed a SSL certificate in your IMAP server, this will not
work. If you have, frequently this will fail since the SSL certificate
invariably contains a common name (CN) that does not match the hostname.
In either case you'll want to enable plaintext logins if you connect
to your IMAP server through localhost. Which should be fine, since
Dovecot will allow plaintext logins through localhost by default. If
you don't have an imp/config/backends.local.php file yet, the
following should do the trick:
<?php
$servers['imap']['secure'] = false;
