All of the horde4 ports including webmail and groupware have been rewritten and comitted. AFAIK everything is working properly.

Does IMP not use the same > login as I assUme? Not necessarily. It all depends on your auth backend configs for both horde and the apps. If you're using IMAP auth, you should be able to login to imp as any regular user on the mail account. It's common to use IMAP auth as your general auth backend, that way your users will end up in the right account. You also need either SASL auth or Dovecot auth setup along with your auth backend. IMAP SSL is required, imp will NOT work with IMAP plain login unless you hack the configs by hand (bad idea). Finally, uncheck the "disable horde test script" box on the main horde configs under the general tab, save your configs and navigate to horde/test.php, there is a section near the bottom for testing your IMAP login. If that isn't successful, you're not going to get much further. If the option doesn't exist at all, you don't have all the modules you need. It will also give you an idea about the state of everything else. Hope this gets you pointed in the right direction :-) Beech -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beech Rintoul - FreeBSD Developer - beech@FreeBSD.org /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | FreeBSD Since 4.x \ / - NO HTML/RTF in e-mail | http://people.freebsd.org/~beech X - NO Word docs in e-mail | Skype: akbeech / \ - http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/8.2R/announce.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
