Comment	> Should a mail server not respond to IMP, all other Horde apps are > slowed down extremely. > > In present case, IMP was configured to create an IMAP session to a > local mail server using the Horde user credentials. The mail server > was misconfigured and took ~30 seconds for a response. Virtually all > page requests to Horde cause IMP to talk to the mail server first, so > each click took hals a minute. Horde was rendered practically > unusable and hard to administer through the console, too. > > More importantly, the same problem occurs if the mail server is down. > > Horde should permit the use of other apps if one app faces a problem. > > A configurable timeout for IMP could help retaining functionality if > the mail server does not respond. > An error page or a notification to an administrator would be nice - > but probably too much to ask for.
