In this case I would suggest to move the configuration item next to 
the safe-ip-net-list, and simply make it a "consider all connections 
safe" item, there's no need to make a connection to hw accel cards.

I added a similar configuration a few days ago that allows certain IP
ranges to not require SSL connections for passphrases. Can't you use
that one?
I have seen it, but unfortunately it is not usable for me
Or isn't the hardware accelerator the IP client address
that's visible to Horde?
this is exactly the reason why, I can't use your configuration. The 
termination of the ssl connection is donw transparently by the 
loadbalancers crypto card, so the webservers see the real client IPs.

In our setup we use a hardware crypto card on our load balancer to 
terminate the ssl connections in front of the webservers, so that the 
webserver do not have to care about ssl en/decryption. This means, 
that they just get to deal with plain HTTP and the Horde framework 
won't let a client to submit gpg-passphrases because it see only the 
plain connection.



The following patches allow a config setting for hardware ssl termination.

Note people should set $conf['use_ssl'] = 1 in their config, to make 
sure that all urls are generated as https://...
