Horde/Imp etc. security track record is no worse than any other PHP based web-mail solution. It has all the attack vectors - PHP, SQL, IMAP etc. It is so flexible that you can use pretty much any IMAP server (including Exchange), any SQL DB, any web server, etc. which of course leaves many possibilities for misconfiguration.
