Brent thanks for the information, I have been able to get IMP 3.0 and Horde 
running on a LAB machine without issue.  I'm just afraid of upgrading the HORDE 
scripts and having it overwrite my SQL DB.  Which SQL scripts under contrib do 
you suggest I start with and on a side note do you know the SQL command to dump 
my SQL DB so I have a good backup of the data.  Thanks for your help I really 
like the new version!!!

Subject: Even More Requested Features

I a earlier mail, I have requested for a notification of the number of messages
in a specific folder.

The next article named "The Perfect Email Client?" is an excelent source for
more features to request and I am sure that you out there can easily request
more cool features.

http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/04/06/1313224


In relation with my requested feature, in the above article is a item that says
"Smart e-mail Notification" ....

a turquoise border if you have just received junk mail or a red one if the note
is from your boss.

So I can say, a turquoise border if you have just received mail in the "junk"
folder" or a red one if the note is for your "boss folder".
