A hook is the way to go IMO.

At most this should be a hook.
Sure, I can't arue with that.

I'd use the existing Accounts_Driver code (as seen in 
horde/lib/Block/account.php).



On the system I'm configuring we use LDAP for account lookups. On a 
different system you might need to configure a different driver or 
another attribute to search on (for example, "mail" rather than "uid", 
if the folder names are based on email addresses). I'd be happy 
handling just the common case to look up on UID.

At most this should be a hook. Doing this in a cross-server way is 
basically impossible. Presumably you have Horde configured to look up 
names via posix_* functions or something? Or do you mean using a 
user's identity? The mailbox name isn't necessarily tied to the Horde 
username either.

IMP / DIMP sees and presents folders in the namespace for other user's 
folders. IMP shows the folders under the heading "Other Users' Folders".



On many systems the folder names are based on the owners' UIDs. For 
example, a user John Smith might have a folder shown as "smithj42" 
inside "Other Users' Folders".

Horde is already able to look up displayNames from UIDs. To enhance 
IMP, implement the same facility for "Other Users' Folders"
