      I'm unsure if this is a Moodle bug or a Horde bug. I'm just not familiar enough with the call sequence to know where the variable is getting changed.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Moodle 2.9.1 running on PHP 5.5.3 with incoming mail functioning. (Gmail, if that matters)
      2. Change PHP version to 5.6 (May also happen on 5.6 install)

      Expected behavior:
      Incoming mail continues to work

      Actual behavior:
      Incoming mail in cron fails with "error connecting to mail server"

      Research
      In 'lib/horde/framework/Horde/Socket/Client.php' the function _connect is receiving the host as "imap.gmail.com:993" and the port as "993", resulting in a final url of ssl://imap.google.com:993:993, which fails. Manually overriding $host and $port corrects the problem.

      Next steps
      I have no idea where _connect is being called from, and honestly I'm not sure how to research it myself. I'd assume it's part of the incoming mail portion, but I don't know the module well enough to know where, and I don't have a stack trace available.
