managing ms-tnef attachment

[deckert florian]

---------------------- multipart/mixed attachment
hi,
I'm trying to setup IMP to connect to a EXCHANGE server.
Everything is working fine but this damed 'application/ms-tnef'
IMP seems just not know about this part of the mail.
I tried to modify the mime.php3 file to add this mime type, but i'm
still unable to show these attachments.
I found the TNEF (1.0.1) application, but I don't know how to handle it
with IMP.

So is there any 'easy' way to solve this ?

The realm parameter in servers.php is "neuromics.com" for me.  That did not 
change.  However, my horde_prefs SQL table now contains entries that have a uid 
of "rbarnett" and new entries that have a uid of "rbarnett@neuromics.com".

The Horde greeting page says "Welcome, Rbarnett@neuromics.com" now.  It said 
"Welcome, RBarnett" before and if I go into horde/imp/conf.php and change the 
server_list parameter back to false and log in to the same server (there's only 
one uncommented server listed in my servers.php), that greeting changes back to 
"Welcome, Rbarnett".

It appears that the server_list parameter affects my identity in the IMP/Horde 
system and that's what was surprising and confusing.

BTW, in case it's relevant, I'm using IMP and Horde from CVS as of a few days 
ago (6/28, I think).

Yes, I did get it working, but thanks.  My primary reason for posting was to 
present the problems with the documentation from a user's point of view.  I was 
going to take a stab at writing some new documentation, but after I poked around 
a bit in the code, I realized that I understood what these parameters do even 
less than I thought I did.  Besides the identity issue above, server_list also 
seems to have an impact on something about how some of the preferences are 
loaded and I don't understand how the mailhost and other related preferences 
interact with the server_list and server_list_hidden parameters.  Does one 
override the other?  Also, the part I snipped above contains explanations for 
three configurations. There's a fourth:

$conf['server']['server_list] = false;
$conf['server']['server_list_hidden'] = true;

I'm guessing that if server_list is false, then server_list_hidden is ignored, 
but I'm not certain of that.

With all these questions, I didn't feel that I could propose adequate new 
documentation, so I settled for providing information that I hoped would be 
useful for someone working on the documentation assuming they knew the answers 
to the questions or had the time to track down those answers.
