I agree that it is a lot of overhead to add extra auth for Ingo.

Just for my own knowledge:  Is there a "horde" way to access the Imp  
auth data? Because for me it does make sense to couple the auth of  
Ingo to Imp as its settings are also under the Imp menu and sieve  
rules are set on the mail server.

If i should ask this on the mailing list just say it. I am using this  
ticket only because it may be interesting for other people.

Thanks for your help
