[imp] Re: Where to After Login? -- Clarification

[Mark Lucas]

Thanks for all your help on this one, I've finally fixed it!

The problem was that I was rerouting users to hord/login.php instead of
horde/index.php to avoid the horde menu coming up at the foot of the page (which
is confusing if you only have imp and turba).

Solution:

1. Leave users to login via horde/index.php and have the horde menu
2. Reroute users to horde/imp/login.php instead of horde/login.php

All seems now to work fine.
Thanks for all your help.

    Mark
