After installing the .reg file, you have to make it the default email client.
So startup IE and goto "Tools->Internet Options" menu (IE5.5).  Select the
"Programs" tab.  Pull down the "E-mail" option list and select Imp.  This
will at least give you a new window with the imp login screen.  I think its
kinda low on the development side, but all the hooks are not there yet.
Here, again, is the .reg file:
