Sorry, forgot to mention versions of Horde/IMP.  I'm attempting to 
install Horde 3.0.3 and IMP h3-4.0.2 (and after that part is working, 
Ingo for managing Sieve scripts, Kronolith, and likely MIMP in case I 
need to access from Palm or similar device).  The platform I'm 
installing all this is an older UltraSparc (Ultra Enterprise 150, which 
is more or less Ultra 1 packaged in big noisy server case) running 
sparc64 version of OpenBSD 3.6.

This isn't my first installation of Horde/IMP.  I've done several of 
them on Red Hat / Fedora systems, and I was always able to do it very 
fast.  However, this is first time I'm doing it on BSD flavor of Unix, 
and it is giving me some hard time.

Actually, PHP Apache module or one of modules loaded by PHP are my prime 
suspects.  I was thinking about upgrading PHP to current version as my 
next step.

I'm kind of slow with this since this is my home project, and my son (9 
months old) is taking most of my free time (I'm not complaining, I'm 
havig tons of fun).  I was hoping that somebody on the list also 
attempted installing current versions of Horde and IMP and run into same 
problems, and that he/she could share a hint or two.  If not, I'll 
probably hunt this down sooner or later (probably later), and will post 
summary to the list (if I don't give up of installing Horde/IMP on 
sparc64 OpenBSD and use an old spare PC as replacement).
