I am currently writing a hook to set it.  It need to be displayed
because user may not know what it is (he could only know is uid and 
passw).  I guess the user could dig it, but I would like to have 
"Your email is blah at blah.com" displayed to reduce support call.

Well, I do but horde/config/motd.php is not displayed in the "Horde::My
Summary".  I am using a snapshot from 07/17/03; is this need to be
configured somewhere ?

Thanks !
