I was having other problems relating to the $actions array in compose.php3 (see
earlier postings on "uninitialized variable, etc., in compose.php3") and found that
the return value of htmlentities() may vary between the initial setting of the
$actions array and the setting of $actionID from the $actions array.  If
$actions[$actionID] is not set the crucial code fetches the value from
$actions[htmlentities($actionID)].  Unfortunately, the inclusion of the doctype.inc
file seems to cause the addition of an initial space in the return value of
htmlentitites($actionID) in some situations.  I have not investigated any of the
details, but I did change line 251 as follows to remove any unexpected initial
spaces, and everything worked.

$actionID = isset($actions[$actionID]) ? $actions[$actionID] :
$actions[trim(htmlentities($actionID))];

Or use a packet sniffer to find out how OE communicates with hotmail if not via 
pop3/imap.

But I agree to the other postings: I see no need for such a feature in IMP.
