[horde] sesson management

[robert sand]

I have a pool of imp servers and I use a single mysql server to store address 
books and session information.  The trick is that you have to have a dns name 
registered that includes all your servers (ie a pool).  You also have to set the 
imap server in the config file to that pool name.  This is because the name of 
the imap server is stored in the session information of the database.

So if you have 3 imp servers called imp1, imp2, and imp3 and they are all 
running an imap, or pop, server then you can group all 3 servers under one dns 
name lets say it is called imp.  Then in your config files you name the imap/pop 
server imp.  Once this is done you can use a single mysql server on any server. 
  You will have to grant access to each of the imp# servers to the horde database.
