automatically will require as much work as correcting the display of
the remote folders ?
didn't notice it and opened new bug report:
https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/13648
But i'm afraid that showing also remote folders is bug here, IMP is
(currently) not able to save sent message in remote folders.
the mails must be stored. But Horde seems to ignore it, when it's a
remote folder (I didn't try with a local folder).
implemented (yet, i hope). I already created these feature requests:

1) I have to re-type every time I login the remote account passwords
2) For sending e-mail with this remote account througt horde, I use
an identity. I have configured it for saving the sent e-mail in the
"Sent" remote directory. However the sent e-mails are still saved in
the local "Sent" directory.
3) I have configured 3 remote accounts, and 4 identities (1 for the
main account, and one for each remote account). The remotes identites
are configured for saving sent e-mails in their "Sent" remote
directories. Now the three "Sent" remote directories have the same
name. Maybe should you add the identity names after the directory
names ?
Best regards
That is one of the reason why this functionality was so important.

other accounts - why not just redirect them?
I don't know if there's any documentation but you can find it in IMP:
Preferences - Mail - Remote accounts (under General column).
I hardly see it as better since seeing remote accounts is very
different than transferring messages from them.
But if you give me direction to the documentation I would like to check it.
Thank you
directly access them which is much better.
How do I downgrade to Horde where I can fetch emails from other isp?
it was really shocking to see it gone, some customers was using this
functionality.

[mms] Allow configurable access to remote accounts from within a
session (
Request #8077).Going to call this completed - the basic functions seem to work well
and, at a minimum, it is stable enough to merge into imp_6_2, which
isn't that close to being released.

lot online because it has been a feature for a long time with
IMP3/4. It was quite hard to to find this page and properly confirm
that it is now depreciated in IMP5. I have added a (rather terse,
sorry, I was suffering a sense of humour failure) note to the Wiki
page about this.
old code was nothing more than a web interface to a (not very
optimized) PHP port of fetchmail. Which wasn't all that useful for
anyone with more than a few hundred messages, since PHP would time-out
or memory fail long before you could synchronize an account.
This ticket is instead a request to add foreign accounts to appear
natively in the UI. Which would allow access of these accounts
without expensive overhead (and allow the synchronization of mail
actions).
hosting providers (plesk/cpanel based) will have a strong incentive
to get this restored since they have been offering IMP as a mail
aggregator service to their customers. They may well feel that this
issue is a blocker for IMP5 adoption.

that is the reality of the situation, especially for something as
resource intensive as this request.

As per the user below I'd also been hoping to use IMP5 to aggregate
some external mailboxes into my main mail system, and might well have
stayed with OpenWebmail if I had seen in advance that I would loose
this functonality. I have worked around it by running getmail as a
service on my server, but it's harder to configure and maintain than
if it was a native IMP function.

Horde IMP. So I took the time to get it working (the installation
process took me a couple of days...).
Now having everything set up I notice the for me most important
feature: to have multiple IMAP accounts accessable at the same time;
represented in the tree on the left, like e.g. Outlook does.
I was sooo sure that Horde will offer such a feature, but apparently
not (atm). :(
Now reading your explaination gives me some hope. May I ask about the
progress or even an ata?

not going to change.
The new code will incorporate additional IMAP/POP servers (other than
the "master" account - the account originally authenticated to and
hardcoded into the imp configuration files) seamlessly into the IMAP
tree. In other words, mailboxes on the other server will behave just
like local mailboxes.

Note that fetching email is for users in specific situations still
wished for and needed. A new version of IMP should not cripple old
features and option IMHO
