[imp] Bypassing the login screen

[Jim Buitt]

I am currently IMP with the following versions:

* Horde 2.2
* IMP 3.1
* PHP 4.3.2

I am the campus-wide IMP Webmail application administrator and I have had 
several reports from computer labs saying that when a user selected an IMP 
Webmail bookmark from their browser, it completely bypasses the login 
screen and puts them directly into the Inbox of another user that is 
currently checking their email a couple workstations away in the same 
lab.  They would then log off and then log back in again with their own 
information and everything would then be fine.  I checked with the user and 
the bookmark did attempt to point their own Inbox, but I would think 
another user would not be able to access it once the browser had 
closed..  And especially from a different computer..  Has anybody else 
experienced this bazaar behavior?  If so, perhaps they have some suggestion 
on fixing it?  Thanks.

Jim
