mod_imap config directives

[Chuck Murcko <ch...@telebase.com>]

Has anyone gotten the mod_imap config directives (ImapMenu, ImapDefault,
ImapBase) to work? If so, how are they used? I've tried all sorts of
places to put these in my config files, but, for instance, I never see
ImapBase prepended to the link I get back from the server if I make it
a specific URL.

Also, is it the client which must interpret "" (the default ImapBase)
as the current URL prefix (i.e., httpd://thehostimon/)?

I was sorta suprised that the module didn't just send a Location: header,
but I'm only moderately deep into the protocols so far.

Randy?

Haven't tried those yet...

NO!  This is a bug in this module, and it's what's causing relative 
listings in map files to break in Mosaic and MSIE.  The core of the 
problem:

Location: /path/file.html

is not allowed, only

Location: http://www.host.com/path/file.html

I just got back from Paris, this is the bug I was working on before I 
left and posted a patch for but that patch was br0ken.  This needs to be 
fixed before a final 1.1.
