Hi everyone,
I've spent many hours trying to figure out why my IMP couldn't connect
to my IMAP server anymore (since at least 2 upgrades). It is not a
production server so I've ignored it for a while but now I've decided
to spend more time on it and after testing pretty much everything I've
realised that the override file:
/usr/local/www/horde/imp/config/backends.local.php
is simply ignored now as it was trying to connect to "localhost"
instead!
Changing the 'hostspec' into backends.php (where it should not be done)
fixed everything.

*** related entry in backends.php (the dist version prior
modification):
// IMAP server
$servers['imap'] = array(
    // ENABLED by default; will connect to IMAP port on local server
    'disabled' => false,
    'name' => 'IMAP Server',
    'hostspec' => 'localhost',
    'hordeauth' => false,
    'protocol' => 'imap',
    'port' => 143,
    // Plaintext logins are disabled by default on IMAP servers (see RFC 3501
    // [6.2.3]), so TLS is the only guaranteed authentication available by
    // default.
    'secure' => 'tls',
);


Anyone experienced the same?
Thanks in advance.
