+ Bug#: 1016
+ Product: Horde
+ Version: other
+ Platform: MSIE 5
+ OS/Version: Linux
+ Status: NEW   
+ Resolution: 
+ Severity: major
+ Priority: P2
+ Component: IMP
+ Area: BUILD
+ AssignedTo: chuck@horde.org

+ Summary: IMP 3.1 allow browser to save login form IMP 2.2.x does not
+ 
+ Using horde 2.1.3 + IMP 3.1
+ 
+ For some reason if browser (IE6) is configured to save forms and 
+ passwds IMP 3.1 login page is saving username and passwd 
+ but IMP 2.2.x does not save them.
+ 
+ When people use micro in lab or internet cafe it is a serious security 
+ bug if accounts and passwds are saved in any configuration.
+ 
+ I do not know what is the mechanism to prevent IE to save passwd, some say 
+ the expiration date is the correct way.
+ 
+ IMP 2.2 and 3.1 are sendig different Expires -headers:
+ 
+ $ wget -d http://tammi2.cc.jyu.fi/horde/imp 2>&1 |  grep -i expi
+ Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT
