Hi,

we use Horde-3.1.3 and Ingo-1.1.1 with procmail as Scriptlanguage
and UW-Imapd as Imapserver. It is possible to use a foldername beginning
with | as mailbox destination in a filterrule.

If the users don't have shell acces to the mailserver this rule could be
used to bypass this restriction.

I would suggest an option in ingos prefs or config files to disable foldername
beginning  with an | in procmail. Disabling the creation of such  
folders in imp would be useless, because the folders could be created  
with other mailclients.

Regards

     Michael Menge
