I just installed the 3.1 files, so far so good.  Below are the steps I took to install it:

1. Change to download directory - example /downloads:  cd /downloads
2. Get the upgrade: wget ftp.horde.org/pub/imp/tarballs/imp-3.1-RC1.tar.gz
3. Unzip files: tar -xvzf imp-3.1-RC1.tar.gz
4. This will create a directory structure starting with imp-3.1   In this example, the files will be at /downloads/imp-3.1
5. Copy this structure into the old structure, overwriting all files.  Run cp -f from the /bin directory, as cp is aliased to cp -i, which would prompt you before overwriting all the files.  In this example the command would be:
/bin/cp -f -r /downloads/imp-3.1/* /home/httpd/html/horde/imp
6. Done.
