Quick answer: yes.  Long answer: yes, if using the configuration  
provided with IMP.  But it is also possible to write a driver to store  
this data anywhere (i.e. one could theoretically write a driver to  
store attachments on Dropbox).

Garbage collection is (possibly) performed on the VFS backend  
everytime the Attachment code is used.

It is in the Horde configuration.

This is a bug.  Please report to bugs.horde.org.  When opening a  
linked attachment, Horde is not authenticated (it is a guest access)  
so the global defaults of the installation are used.  We should grab  
the sending user's language preference and set the language to it  
before generating the e-mail message.
