[imp] Several problems with Horde+IMP

Sun Jan 2 17:15:48 PST 2005

I had similar problems because an old DB pear module, upgrade it.

And please try to be nicer to the list, specially to those who make the 
best web
mail system, much more than a web mail system actually :)

I used horde 2 with imp3 for a long time, and now im using horde 3 imp 
4, and i
think its more than functional.
