Alright, then why don't we have active session database in IMP 2.3 just like 
2.2 (active_sessions) with session timeout? Then we could trace how many users 
are logged in and by adding the userid in the "sid" we could trace the user 
also. If a user just shutdown the browser or computer while logged in, the 
session-timeout will remove the seesion from the database. Session timeout may 
be a made as a variable (changable) from configuration files.

Am I out of the track about this, or this can be given a thought? 'Cause it 
sometimes becomes important to monitor who is currently using my webmail 
system, :)
