I'm running IMP 3.1 on a production server.  The only timeout problem I get is 
when the pop-up 'new message' occurs--it will time-out fairly quick.

You should have this in your preferences:

// Should the original message be included?
$_prefs['reply_quote'] = array(
    'value' => 1,
    'locked' => false,
    'shared' => false,
    'type' => 'checkbox',
    'desc' => _("Include original message in a reply?")

You can do linking via /horde/config/registry.php: 
 $this->applications['bookmark'] = array(
     'webroot' => '/horde/bookmark',
     'icon' => $this->applications['horde']['webroot'] . '/bookmark/link.gif',
     'name' => _("Links"),
     'allow_guests' => false,
     'show' => true
 );

The above entry links to a html document I created in /horde/bookmark.  That 
document has links to common agency stuff and search engines--all of which I 
set to open in a new window.  It works for what we need it for--users that 
can't remember how to type in google.com, etc...
