[imp] IMP Login

[Nick Cole]

Hmmm ... this just seems to be a quicker way of logging in to horde and 
going straight into IMP, unless I'm missing something?

To confirm, current setup is:

- horde auth via mysql
- imp auth via POP
- above pop server set up in servers.php, with hordeauth = true

Following your suggestion:

- I browse to www.mydomain.com/horde/imp
- This throws up horde login
- If I login as "nick", then the hordeauth fails when trying to login to POP 
server (obviously), and I get offered the chance to login to POP manually
- If I login as POP user, then hordeauth works, but this is what I'm trying 
to avoid, as POP userid is about as memorable as dspvj6rkja-1 !
