There's a quirk in the GData query syntax, which I was thinking to base
this on (http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/protocol.html#query-requests)
that should take care of the /new problem. /new is a category, and
categories should be preceded with /-/ to distinguish them from other path
elements. So we'd have:

http://server/horde/imp/rss.php - gives all mail in inbox
http://server/horde/imp/rss.php/-/new - gives new mail in inbox

Also, rss.php/INBOX should work as well. I like the REQUEST_URI usage to
avoid PATH_INFO; any sense how portable it is?
