Did you try to run in debug mode?

1) Stop XMail

2) Run

        # /$PATH_TO_XMAIL/XMail --debug -Md ...

   Where '#' mean "from root" and '...' means the remaining command line 
   parameters you usually pass to it

3) Try again the connection to port 110


If that does not spit out anything interesting, then run:

# gdb --args /$PATH_TO_XMAIL/XMail --debug -Md ...
> r

Where 'r' mean type 'r' and ENTER inside GDB.
Then try again the 110 connection.

You've configured XMail about hundred times, and yet you don't know the 
command lines switches? :)

Probably Horder is fine, but you misconfigured SSL. The "220 Ready to start TLS"
is an OK message, and likely XMail refuses to talk to Horde (or viceversa) 
because of SSL misconfigurations.
