I see what you mean now. The problem is, there actually is no way at  
the moment to retrieve the per-application user names. It's only  
intended to be used once at the initial login to an application. And  
since Ingo doesn't require authentication, it's never been used, let  
alone stored anywhere. IMP is different because it requires  
authentication, and "caches" the user name by storing the IMAP object  
including user credentials in the session.

You might be able to workaround this by enabling the 'username' and  
'password' in Ingo's backend configuration, but setting them  
dynamically with the same information use currently use in the  
pre-auth hook.
