Apparently, you're using a third-party packaged version of Horde. Ask  
whoever created the packages first, we can't support installations  
that are not either installed through PEAR (stable) or Git  
(development).

The above is wrong. Read the headers of the backends.php file. The  
example given, is almost what you need:

<?php
$servers['imap']['hostspec'] = 'mail.mydomain.net';

Also mind the permissions. You need to make sure whichever user your  
webserver is running as, can read this file.
