Well, they *did* ask you to curb your attitude.

I'm sorry, I still fail to see how this has *anything* to do with  
Horde, other than the fact you enjoy irritating open source  
developers. Let me recap: what you are saying is that the PEAR folks  
fixed an issue with *their* code, that *they* wrote, that is *not*  
under *any* control of *anyone* on the Horde team and that somehow  
this is a bad reflection on Horde? Hm. I guess we are responsible for  
bugs in PHP too?

I also find it interesting that, as you said in the thread at PEAR,  
"IMP is broken", but then later on indicate that it was the changes  
made to the *PEAR* package that have fixed things for you. You then  
post back here in an "I told you so", entitlement-laced attitude that  
you were correct in treating us with your normal outright disrespect.  
Nice.
