Automated Login

Happy New Year Everyone!

I'm trying to integrate Horde and IMP into my Extranet so users do not have
to authenticate twice to get their e-mail.  I send the parameters
"horde_user" and "horde_pass" and IMP will pre-populate the username and
password fields, but I'd like to fully automate the process.  Has anyone
done this before?

Thanks,
Michael

Jon,

I would agree with your response to the first observation, it was more of 
a "nice-to-have feature" that I was looking for. :-)

As for observation #2, I was curious if instead of no-response (and thus the 
time-out and eventual error message), perhaps IMP3 could react better in the 
case of when the input is not properly formed...  It seems to me that nothing 
was returned by the IMP3 (crashed??), even though the exported message was 
partially readable under a browser...  I have checked horde.log, and the two 
logs from apache but found nothing that would shed some light on this issue.

Any idea why no response from the IMP??
