The Horde Team is pleased to announce the first release candidate of the IMP
Webmail Client version H3 (4.1).

IMP, the Internet Messaging Program, is one of the most popular webmail
applications available.  It allows universal, web-based access to IMAP and
POP3 mail servers and provides a full range of features normally found only in
desktop email clients.

This is a preview version that should not be used on production systems.  This
version is considered feature complete but a few bugs may still exist in the
code.

Testing is requested and comments are encouraged.
Updated translations would also be great.

Major changes compared to the IMP H3 (4.0) versions are:
    * User changes:
      - Virtual Inbox and Virtual Trash folder.
      - "Empty Spam" menu item.
      - Stationery and form responses.
      - Not necessary to click on "Attach" button when attaching files.
      - Play sound on new mail.
      - Multiple message view.
      - Ability to create notes from email messages.
      - Improved message previews.
      - Import of photo attachments into a gallery application.
      - Send notification when linked attachments are downloaded.
      - Graphical representation of thread on thread view screen.
      - Encrypt PGP messages for all recipients in one message.
      - Always send new messages in "flowed" format.
    * Administrator changes:
      - Compatible with PHP 5.1.
      - Auto-detection of namespace information from IMAP server.
      - Permission to restrict folder creation.
      - Support for changing SMTP server/port on login.
      - More flexible custom email headers.
