Then comments should be made in those tickets.

FWIW, the solution given in this ticket is completely wrong.  First,  
an application should NEVER NEVER access member variables of another  
application.  That is just wrong.

And why are you trying to reset the IMAP password in IMP anyway?  Just  
because your password is changed via the passwd module, what does this  
have to do with an IMAP password on the remote server.  It is  
*possible* that the two may be related, but certainly not required or  
expected.

The proper solution, as implemented by Jan in the other ticket, is to  
clear all credentials in the session and require the user to  
re-authenticate.  If that is not working for you, then that is the bug  
that needs to be fixed.  But the logic of that solution is correct.
