Ron,
The problem was the fact that the security protocol does not permit an IP
address different from the calling IP. You have to disable "Ignore source
address in security check" to get it to work. This resolved our issue to
create a seamless logon.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] login.cgi from a remote machine
Michael,
It's always worked for us. Try this login form using the username "demo"
and the password "blue":
http://hksi.net/test-imail-login.html
That's a different machine from our IMail server. View the source and
you'll see how we're passing the form. Have never seen a case where the
session ID isn't being written to the URL. Do you have the hidden input
field (<input type="hidden" name="page" value="login">) in place?
HTH,
