The hack unfortunately is not apropriate for most other scenarios. I 
am reproducing and providing a cleaner solution but it will take some 
time.

The ticket (resolved, but not fixed)
Bug #10228

I didn't tried the hack posted in the ticket.
There should be a real (final) solution.
FYI: Finally, i tried the hack from Bug #10228 and it is working for me.

Looks like a duplicate of #11766, don't you think?
Similar, but not exactly the same.

I don't get an error that imp is not activated, but it looks like imp 
is caching the credentials somewhere and these are not updated during 
a password change.

I don't know the deep horde internals for credential handling, but it 
may be that not passwd is the culprit here but imp is.

I tried to use the passwd app using the smbldap and smbpasswd backend 
to change passwords.
Changing passwords works perfectly and without any trouble but after 
the change, the complete horde system is in an unusable state, 
probably mainly related to imp, as this is the first app which returns 
an error directly after the password change:

ERR: HORDE [imp] Mail server denied authentication. [pid 43110 on line 
390 of "/home/www/horde/imp/lib/Imap.php"]

When i try to use kronolith, nag or any other app, this results in 
another error message from imp:

ERR: HORDE [imp] Server does not support TLS connections. [pid 43090 
on line 390 of "/home/www/horde/imp/lib/Imap.php"]

This error message is plain wrong, as it is simply the authentication 
that fails, verified using the log of the IMAP server.

Looks like imp is still trying to connect to the IMAP server using the 
old credentials and is very similar to Bug #11766
