At a minimum, make sure you are not using SQL to store your session information.
Peter, As the least technical person on this list, I can appreciate your frustration. Michael's advice is good advice and setting up horde should be easier than you're making it. Wipe your /var/www/html/horde and drop your horde db and start again. Keep it simple. Install the groupware package (since I think this will be easier for you to update and administer) and follow the instructions exactly. (You've also been advised to read the prerequisites and preparation steps and this too is good advice). Start with a simple configuration and test each change. What you want to do is is use the imap authentication driver (this way Dovecot is doing the authentication for you and you don't need to create users). Do make sure your email is listed in the admin parameter in the authentication tab in Horde. Use *.local.php files when making changes to backends.php etc. As has been noted elsewhere we can help you, but you need to present your problem in a way that is useful to us - that means sticking to one thread (you now have two open, pick one and stick to it) and to post your reply at the bottom of the email (not the top as Outlook is wont to do). This will make it easier for us to follow what you're doing. Cheers.
