I've been testing Horde 3.x with Imp, Kronolith, Nag, Nmemo, and Jonah 
for about 3 months now and my test users have been requesting one 
feature more then any other.

Pop up messages with audio bells.  They want pop ups for new mail and 
pop alarms for events and todos.  Now the kicker here is they want the 
pop-ups regardless of which app is selected.  They want new mail 
pop-ups while looking at their calendar.  They want calendar alarms 
while looking at the portal page.

So would it be possible or even a good idea to add a general 
notification framework to horde, allowing horde apps to register events 
to be sent to the user?  The notification events could even be 
concatenated into one pop-up.

"15 Minute until your meeting and you have 1 new message"

Just a thought maybe something for Horde 4.x.  Other then that my users 
have found Imp 4.x to be a VERY nice upgrade.  Lots of great features 
and I have to say the whole Horde environment is much nicer and more 
refined.

Great job!!!
