[imp] Multiple email address for an LDAP contact

[Alex Masidlover]

This issue has been reported on the Turba list, but really it is an  
IMP issue rather than a Turba issue. Where a contact has multiple  
email addresses (in our case stored in LDAP backends) IMP will expand  
the contact as:

<NAME>: <email1>, <email2>, <email3>

Which as Jan pointed out to the poster on the Turba list will be  
understood by SMTP servers - however, I have contacts who I have  
personal, work, mobile addresses etc. for who would not appreciate a  
copy of every message to every address!

 From my point of view the ideal would be for the expand names  
function to show the different addresses in the drop down (in the same  
way as ambiguous names). Obviously this doesn't help when browsing the  
address book but it is a start...

Anyway, I have written a little mod that achieves the above, it is at  
the end of this mail (diffed against IMP4.1 stable). Apologies if my  
PHP style is poor, but this is the first new PHP code I've ever written!
