The advantage of imap or imp authentication opposite to sql authentication 
is that most people already have their user base in an imap server and 
there's no need to build up a second authentication handler next to the 
working one.

If you want to use IMP, the users have to authenticate against the imap 
server anyway, so it only makes sense if you want to offer other Horde 
applications to users that don't have a local imap account.
