IMP 3.1: Undefined identities use MY name - Help

[Darien Kruss]

As I am deploying Horde 2.0/IMP 3.1 to more users in my organization, 
I am noticing a strange behavior and I can't seem to track it down.

If a user creates an identity, or modifies their 'default identity' 
then everything works as expected.

If a user logs in to IMP and just composes and sends mail, the mail 
is sent with MY name (as it is configured in Red Hat 7.2 shell) and 
their email address as the FROM: (Darien Kruss <joe@example.com>)

Here's where I'm confused. None of the processes on the server run as 
me. My name doesn't appear in any config or prefs files. All software 
installation is done as root. If I change my account name (usermod -c 
'New Name' darien) then IMP uses THAT name.

At what point could IMP be reading the name of a user account in 
Linux and using it as the sender's name? I'm stumped.

Some nice additions.  Thanks for your interest!

> Eric, whatcha think of what I committed?

You completely broke it ;)  Sorry.  It wouldn't parse the example
in the RFC anywhere near correctly.  Nor the emails I have...

So now I've put up a new revised version at
https://mail.utexas.edu/patches/misc/enriched.php.txt
that works for me.  Added color by names (ala your color by rgb) 
according to the rfc, since I find the names are used at least as 
often as the rgb values.  You converted things to <div> which causes 
a line break, so I changed those to <span> which doesn't do the line 
breaks (note, some of them need to be <div> since the rfc says they 
should cause a line break, and others can't be <div> but must be 
<span> since the rfc says they should not cause a line break).  

Also, your code messed with the case of << (or in the html page
&lt;&lt;) so I've put a stupid test in for that.  Basically each
ereg_replace now looks for a non-&lt; before the &lt; -- Yeah, this
is a stupid way to do it, but it works for now, and I'm hoping someone
can tell me a better way to do it (maybe keeping the chr(1) encoding
for a longer time, converting it back after the tags are all done???)

Please check out my new version, and see what you think.  It is much
nicer (in features/function) than my original, but probably not as
nice in programming style/clarity...
