[imp] Folder Navigator

Quoting Weston Bustraan <weston@itdonline.net>:

First of all...you're running horde/imp 1.3/2.3 cvs? What php version?

I don't know if you're having the same problem I am, but there's a workaround.  
Can you provide a bit more information though?  Primarily, the dns settings for 
your imap server and the IMP configuration settings.  I found that php versions 
newer than php-4.0.3pl1 have some problem with DNS and the imap_status() call.  
Don't ask me to explain because I don't understand it myself.  But changing the 
host that imp uses to connect to the server from a CNAME'ed imap.domain.com to 
the A record realhost.domain.com fixes it.

Yes, this is a very bizarre problem and it has nothing to do with IMP.

To turn off navigator, set $conf['user']['allow_folders'] to false.  Navigator 
is scheduled to replace the folders screen so both of them are controlled by 
this setting.
