**##red|User Contributed Preferences##**
Perhaps the greatest feature of Horde and all of it's modules is the flexibility to adapt to a myriad of different uses and I would
expect that eventually, a more integrated system of managing 'defaults' will become part of the code but at this moment in
time, the only way to effect settings system wide is to edit the various prefs.php file inside each module.
I thought it would be interesting to share what people do to the various preferences and it would make a handy reference to
point people towards if they ask on the various lists.
The methodology of capturing some of these 'strings' of values is that I usually create the setup exactly how I want it for my
'Administrator' user and then copy the values out of the SQL database and paste them into the appropriate spot in the prefs.php file.
Feel free to add your customizations for others to look at and consider.

I have created entries for common categories and common colors for the categories and labels. I am figuring that the entire
yellow->orange range is available for people to use for their own purposes and making appointment types in the blue range,
personal items in the green spectrum and finally the group categories in red.
<code>
// categories
$_prefs['categories'] = array(
'value' => 'Appointment - In Office|Appointment - Out of Office|Company Event|Personal Event|Personal Task|Task - Administrative Group|Task - IT Group|Task - Sales Group|Training|Vacation Schedule|Vendor meeting|Holiday',
'locked' => false,
'shared' => true,
'type' => 'implicit'
);

Next - and certainly what I think is the most important customization of all possible, is the portal page itself...the main Horde page. This is the sizzle of the steak.
This gets people's attention. Of course the weather is for my neck of the woods...
<code>
// the layout of the portal page.
$_prefs['portal_layout'] = array(

I haven't done much with IMP but all my users have these mailboxes and I want them to be 'polled' for new mail
when they log on to system (especially the public mail - if there is any 'unseen' mail).
<code>
// list of folders to poll for new mail
$_prefs['nav_poll'] = array(
'value' => 'a:7:{s:5:"INBOX";b:1;s:19:"INBOX.Deleted Items";b:1;s:12:"INBOX.Drafts";b:1;s:16:"INBOX.Sent Items";b:1;s:13:"INBOX.SPAMBOX";b:1;s:14:"INBOX.VIRUSBOX";b:1;s:6:"public";b:1;}',

Ingo is very clever and it gives you some defaults automatically, but I want to redirect mail already tagged as spam or virus (virus removed naturally) into
their respective folders which I have already created for them in my imap configuration. Thus, the default rules additions.
<code>
// filter rules
$_prefs['rules'] = array(
'value' => 'a:6:{i:0;a:2:{s:4:"name";s:9:"Whitelist";s:6:"action";i:9;}i:1;a:3:{s:4:"name";s:8:"Vacation";s:6:"action";i:8;s:7:"disable";b:1;}i:2;a:2:{s:4:"name";s:9:"Blacklist";s:6:"action";i:7;}i:3;a:2:{s:4:"name";s:7:"Forward";s:6:"action";i:10;}i:4;a:7:{s:4:"name";s:9:"SPAM Flag";s:7:"combine";s:1:"1";s:10:"conditions";a:1:{i:0;a:4:{s:5:"field";s:11:"X-Spam-FLAG";s:4:"type";i:1;s:5:"match";s:8:"contains";s:5:"value";s:3:"YES";}}s:12:"action-value";s:13:"INBOX.SPAMBOX";s:6:"action";s:1:"2";s:4:"stop";s:1:"1";s:5:"flags";i:0;}i:5;a:7:{s:4:"name";s:10:"VIRUS Flag";s:7:"combine";s:1:"1";s:10:"conditions";a:1:{i:0;a:4:{s:5:"field";s:12:"X-Virus-FLAG";s:4:"type";i:1;s:5:"match";s:8:"contains";s:5:"value";s:3:"YES";}}s:12:"action-value";s:14:"INBOX.VIRUSBOX";s:6:"action";s:1:"2";s:4:"stop";s:1:"1";s:5:"flags";i:0;}}',
