[imp] Login Fails when password contains backslash

[Pape, Michael J.]

Thanks for the reply,

I've upgraded to Horde 2.1 final with the same results. The tarball for
IMP extracted to ./imp-3.1, so I'll assume that this is the final, but
it was around the beginning of March, so it might pay to get the latest
which looks to be currently dated 6/10/02.

I also had another reply that led me to look at how imapd responds to
the "\" in passwords -- I've replied to the list with my results...

Mike

I'm not sure what configuration option would affect it, but this works
fine 
here. Are you using 3.1 final? Or 3.1-RC1, like Horde? Any reason you 
haven't upgraded Horde to 2.1 final?
