An IMP vs SilkyMail show stopper -- is there a work around

[Rob Tanner]

We are currently using Silkymail to provide distant access to our IMAP 
mail boxes.  While Silkymail is okay, IMP has a much better look and 
feel -- it also feel more responsive (which is a subjective valuation 
as I don't have any benchmarks to compare).

Silkymail also uses a modified version of PHP 3.0.16 (done by Cyrusoft 
just for Silkymail) and does a real clean connect to everybody's IMSP 
addressbooks.  IMP, on the other hand does not support IMSP, and though 
it does support LDAP, address expansion does not appear to work via 
LDAP.  Is there a workaround?  What I need is to be able to 
authenticate, search, and have address expansion work on the search 
result just like it does using the contact address list.

Is this just some pieces I'm missing, or a major enhancement request?
