>> Here's the issue:
>> 1. The sidebar generates an IMP_Tree.  This IMP_Tree uses the previous
>> values of the Virtual INBOX and Virtual Trash identifiers.
>> 2. User accesses IMP.  Session tasks get run and new Virtual INBOX and
>> Virtual Trash entries (with new identifiers) are created.
>> 3. User clicks on Virtual Trash on sidebar - receives an error message
>> that mailbox doesn't exist.  And it doesn't, since this link won't be
>> correct since the identifier it points to has been deleted in #2.

>> Not to mention that we have to generate IMP_Tree twice on login (since
>> the sidebar version is not saved in the session) so we are losing
>> caching benefits.

>> login app) and clicking on a IMP/sidebar link (to anywhere) after all
>> pages stop loading.  Main frame is immediately redirected to login page
>> which states login has failed.  Enter username/password, login, and the
>> rest of the session works fine.  This isn't reproducible 100% of the
>> time, either.

I'll try this out later and let you know if this fixes it.
