So do I, but you still have to authenticate twice.
 
This was just an idea I had i thought i would share where you only authenticate once (Imail webmail) and can seamlessly integrate your own application with webmail.

This isn't so hard if you write a COM .dll object to read from the registry.
In any case, I don't store passwords in the registry... I use SQL for the IMAIL "database"

The topic has been reached numerous on this list so I thought I would share an idea I had earlier today that works great with everyone on this list.
 
Many of you have the idea's of writing your own parsers/interfaces for parts of declude or other parts of imail, but the biggest stump can be there is no easy way to check authentication against the IMAIL registry, or to integrate the features seamlessly into the imail/webmail interface.
 
Any developer can easily validate a session using an IMAIL session without ever needing or knowning the actual password of an account. I have commented my Cold Fusion authorization page [ cf_imail_login.txt ] so that no matter what language you code in you should be able to easily port.
 
For a working example feel free to check my "test" login I make available to this list.
pass = declude
 ( click the "Junkmail" button and you will be sent to an external server, but the interface is identical )
 
*Note: my working example builds heavily on the attachments I have included. I stripped everything down to the bare logic so everyone can use this to suit their needs.
 
If anyone else finds this information nearly as useful as I did today please let me know.
I'm sure this will make using the filters much much simpler for my users.
 
-Tom
