IMAP Logins Fail

[George Kearns]

Hello all,

I'm very new to IMP (and VERY impressed so far), and I have been experiencing 
login failures with passwords that contain certain characters, namely the at 
symbol "@" and the exclamation point "!" (assuming there are others as well). 
If I change the password on the effected accounts to simple words, everything 
starts working. 

Looking at /tmp/horde.log, the authentication is attempted on the server, but 
it fails. This indicates to me that horde/imp is munging the password before it 
tries to authenticate with it. I know these passwords work in general; I have 
no problems using these passwords with other clients to the same server.

I'm logging in directly with IMP (skipping horde login), and using IMAP. The 
same thing happens with POP3, too.

Is there any way around this? I wouldn't mind fixing it myself, if someone 
could point me to the right file(s) to modify..  

Thanks for any help.
