It isn't being maintained currently. It needs to be ported to the new
MIME_Viewer framework. Volunteers?

Yes.

Possibly. Try the PEAR at http://horde.org/pear/, and if things still don't
work, come back with more details.

> 5. The weird one. I was able to login at one point. However, I changed the

> =>5123);
>  /// $conf['prefs']['params'] = array('localhost','hordemgr','passwd');
> 
> And logins stopped working. The mail server shows that I have authenticated
> via IMAP . But the session is not stored on the HORDE / IMP webserver.  I
> tried a number of things, but to no avail. I can no longer get a session.
> The only other change that I made around that time was to implement the
> SECURITY suggestions regarding ownership and permissions on the config
> directories.  However, I rolled that change back to no avail.

servername, username, etc should be quoted... it's possible that that's it. What
was there before you made that change?
