     Bug #12975: Immediately save attachment, so we can report error 
if attachment data cannot be saved locally to VFS backend

     Use the temporary upload file as needed during the initial upload access
     to eliminate the need to create another temporary file

a) the permissions of the cache directory can change unintentionally. 
Horde would not log problems.

b) without read permission of the directory, the only denied operation 
is opendir($conf['tmpdir']). Horde can read any item it created within 
the directory and below. I wonder what Horde searches for in tmpdir 
e.g. if one uses the system default /tmp, which is shared among 
various other processes. Any found item could belong to another 
process or web application.

I configured confiig/conf.php: $conf['tmpdir'] = '/var/cache/horde';
chown root:root /var/cache/horde
chmod u=rwx,g=,o=wx /var/cache/horde
You have got to be kidding. With the above settings, you might just as 
well set the cache to /dev/null. The whole idea of a cache is that you 
can both write *and* read stuff to/from the cache. If you don't 
understand why Horde is unable to use the cache with the permissions 
above, running a webserver is probably not for you.
The test.php let this config pass.
The test script is no replacement for basic system administration skills.

I configured confiig/conf.php: $conf['tmpdir'] = '/var/cache/horde';
chown root:root /var/cache/horde
chmod u=rwx,g=,o=wx /var/cache/horde

The test.php let this config pass. Horde5 does not log anything 
either. The directory is filled with various cache_* files and a 
horde_cache_gc file.

But you cannot send attachments. The message is "Content-Type: 
text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed; DelSp=Yes" for both, the 
physical mesage in Sent folder and the message sent. The GUI shows the 
attachment. So, the sender does not see anything wrong.

If I change the permission of the tmpdir to o=rwx, both the messages 
physically in the Sent folder and the sent message get "Content-Type: 
multipart/mixed; boundary="=_0zwrHbyMiqc5WlfTEt5QFw1"" and do contain 
the attachment.

Now, there is a subdir in /vfar/cache/horde names ".horde" with 
"imp/compose" subdir.

1) IMHO, there should be an error logged in the compose window that 
the attachment has not been physically sent.

2) test.php should check the permission of tmpdir

3) Why is read-permission required at all? And causing that problem.

For the record: I've changed the ownership / permission of tmpdir so:
chown www-data /var/cache/horde
chmod 0700 /var/cache/horde
