I'm, like 100% certain that the two horn parts are not the same. Straight up. Partly because of the major key changes in the "All Night" that just a aren't there in the reggae-derived horn loop in "Spottie..." (See the chorus at 2:30-2:40, and you'll hear notes and phrasing that aren't in "Spottie" at all).
So I just wanted to throw that out there. I DO know that people from both Bey and OutKast camps noticed the similarities between the horn parts, and that OutKast was given a post-release songwriting credit that appears on all pressings of the album except for the first.
But... It's not a direct sample of the song. It has a very similar sound, but the key is different, and the recording of the horns is very obviously of a higher quality on "All Night."
Anyway, not trying to be a dick, but that's my verdict and I stand by it after listening to the songs back to back a few times. I thought it sounded odd that the horns came from Spottie, but I held my tongue cause y'all tend to know more about this shit than I do.
Both excellent songs, though.

Yeah I initially assumed they were sampled, but they weren't, they just happened to be like, really similar.
