[imp] Idle Time Out

[Parag Godkar]

Ok. That's a major drawback for an otherwise truly fine and magnificient
application. We now plan to remove the idle timeout feature in
horde-phplib -

var $lifetime       = 0;     // 0 = do session cookies, else minutes

Now after doing this, we would like to know if the user sessions, and his
mysql and http connections would be automatically closed if the user
accidentally closes his browser instead of logging out.

Also, we would like to know if we can set session cookie timeouts of say
20 minutes so that no user can use IMP for more than 20 minutes. If so,
where are those settings?

Can someone please guide.

Regards,
Parag Godkar.
