Yes I'm using 2.3.  That's what I tried, but it ignores the value stored in 
the database and uses the account name instead.

Is anybody working on getting IMP being the default email client in Windows?

You can setup Hotmail as a default client, so IMP must be possible.  Looking
at the registry entries for Hotmail, we could make a new entry like this:

REGEDIT4
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP]
@="IMP"
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\Protocols]
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\Protocols\mailto]
"EditFlags"=hex:02,00,00,00
"URL Protocol"=""
@="URL:MailTo Protocol"
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\Protocols\mailto\shell]
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\Protocols\mailto\shell\open]
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\Protocols\mailto\shell\open\command]
@="iexplore.exe -nohome 192.168.1.10/horde/imp?mailto=%1"
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\shell]
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\shell\open]
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\IMP\shell\open\command]
@="iexplore.exe -nohome 192.168.1.10/horde/imp"                                

I'm not sure about the hooks into imp, but shouldn't be too hard ;)
