[imp] Login (horde auth = 'imp') always returns "Login failed for some reason..."

[David Peoples]

Jim,

I'm glad to hear you solved your problem. It sounds like most of my 
suggestions ran you up some blind alleys. But maybe I encouraged you to keep 
trying, and that is a good thing. <g>

I remember well being impressed when I demo-ed the new IMP, and then being 
depressed when I couldn't get my own copy to run for several days. It is a 
very nice interface, and the other people at my company who've tried it so 
far are very impressed too. Have fun!

David
