The Horde Team is pleased to announce the first alpha release of the MIMP
Webmail Client version H3 (1.1).

MIMP (Mobile Internet Messaging Program, or Mobile IMP) is a version of the
webmail client IMP suitable for mobile devices such as WAP phones or
PDAs. Basic IMP functionality is implemented including mailbox viewing and
paging, viewing messages, deleting, replying, forwarding, and composing new
messages.

This is a preview version that should not be used on production systems.  This
version is considered feature complete but there might still be a few bugs.
You should not use this preview version over existing production data.

We encourage widespread testing and feedback via the mailing lists or our bug
tracking system.  Updated translations are very welcome, though some strings
might still change before the final release.

MIMP version H3 (1.1) is a major upgrade in the 1.x release series, including
these enhancements:
    * MIMP now uses IMP for all core functionality.  This means that MIMP
      honors all IMP's preferences, is able to share all cached data with
      IMP (and DIMP), and benefits from all the performance enhancements
      included with IMP 4.2.

MIMP H3 (1.1) requires Horde version 3.2 and IMP version H3 (4.2) to run.
