Internet Messaging Program

The Internet Messaging Program (in short: IMP) is an open source webmail for Horde Framework on PHP - based.

IMP was originally a stand-alone program. However, since many suggestions for improvement and enhancement requests the user base theme could not be assigned to the area webmail, there was a separation in the framework Horde and the acts building upon module IMP. A working installation of Horde has since been necessary for the operation of IMP.

IMP can access other Horde modules over the Horde API. So, for example, use the IMP Turba module as an address book or save from an email out notes in mnemonic ( Hordes virtual notebook ).

IMP engages in newer versions back to implement various functions quite heavily on JavaScript and Dynamic HTML. For older browsers, the traditional view is still available to avoid possible difficulties with modern technologies.
