Ok, I've found out the issue.

Now Horde_Smtp::getParam('username') is returning the full username 
(user@domain).

I was missing the $servers['imap']['smtp']['horde_auth'] setting in 
imp/config/backends.local.php. It must be set to true in order to 
retrieve horde-wide smtp credentials (which, in turn, in my case, is set 
to pull horde login credentials).

It's pretty confusing having part of these settings in one place 
(horde-wide config) and other part under imp's config, I mean, pulling 
settings from there to here, in a mixed way, but I think there must be a 
good design reason for that decision.

I don't know, maybe it would be nice to require IMP to have an isolated 
configuration (even at the cost of occasionally having to type in the 
same smtp server configuration again under imp's backends file).

It is also confusing to have an "smtp" setting, which represents a 
separate backend, configured under "imap" backend, as if it was 
dependent of it. In this way, the smtp options for IMP get completely 
hidden and it is hard to find them and make sense of them.

Add to the confusion part the fact that the setting "hordeauth" is also 
present for the imap backend itself, which is necessary but makes the 
documentation somewhat trickier to grasp at a first read. When I first 
read it I took one 'hourdeauth' explanation by another, because I found 
the param via search in my text editor and I just read the first 
"hourdeauth" that appeared. And they are different (hordeauth for imap 
backend has true, 'full' or false options, whereas hordeauth for 
['imap']['smtp'] accepts true of false.

I know it is completely my fault not reading the entire documentation 
from backends.php, but the same situation is likely to happen with a lot 
of people, I think.

Maybe it would help newcomers if the example imap server from 
imp/config/backends.php already brought a sample smtp server setting 
within, with some clarifying comments above each option, at least so the 
admin would know it can be configured this way at first glance.

If you think it's a good idea I'm willing to update the backends.php 
file and suggest something via github.

Thanks.
