[imp] Imp and kerberos

[Faraz Khan]

The problem is that either the php-imap or the c-client imap library  
is broken when using GSSAPI auth. The get-around overkill way is to  
use something like CAS:

Horde/Cyrus is among the apps they have cas-ified. This works as it  
does not depend on PHP carrying the ticket to the IMAP server.  
Authentication to cyrus is not GSSAPI but you get the single-signon  
effect.

Quoting Jean <jean.midot at insa-lyon.fr>:
