Quoting Max Spicer <m.spicer@csl.gov.uk>:

| I know that it is possible to disable the maintenance operations 
| screen in Imp 3.0 by locking the appropriate options to false in 
| prefs.php.  However, this also prevents the user from ever enabling 
| maintenance operations in the future (without an admin change to the 
| prefs.php file).
| 
| I think it is inappropriate for a new imp user to be confronted with 
| a potentially confusing maintenance screen the first time they use 
| imp.  However, as they get more used to imp, they should be able to 
| turn on the various maintenance options via the Options link in imp.  
| I therefore want to disable the Maintenance Operations screen, but 
| not the actual configuration of the maintenance operations.  Is there 
| any way to do this at present?
| 

This has been fixed by me in CVS.  This patch ensures that the maintenance 
screen will never be shown upon the first login.

A patch to IMP 3.0 can be found at:
