I'm not sure that this would be acceptable because
we have some imposed security requirements. Wouldn't this put the UserName
and Password in plain text for anyone to see. Any more thoughts would be
appreciated.

Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Login
Mike,
Someone
asked that question here yesterday. Here was my answer:
Check out our sample form code
at http://hksi.net/imail-login.htm.
To make it "automatic", change the
userid and passwd fields to
type="hidden", then fill their values with ASP code, probably
something like
value="<%=UserName%>" and value="<%=Password%>". Then, all the
user has to do is click the Submit
button (or a link that triggers a
JavaScript form submission), and they'll be logged right in.
Also, there
is no API into the heart of IMail. But we can still dream...
:)
Hope this helps,
Ron

We are evaluating whether to purchase the IMail
package. We have a need for a common login area that provides access
to several resources. Email is one of them.
We want the user to be able to login once and
have access to any of the resources without having to login again.(The
resources will be on different servers).
After a quick tour of the product I was not
able to find any exposure of the API other than through the tags and
templates. Is there an interface that can be accessed
programatically. Or is there another way to credential a user outside
the provided Login.cgi, and have that information forwarded to the mail
system for authentication.
Any help provided will be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
