[Webdev] Nasty apache problem

[Donncha O Caoimh]

I don't think this will work. Aren't cookies only supposed to be sent
back to the host that sent them? Or can it be as broad as "the domain
that sent them"? 
What I would do, and am doing with two servers here is populate the
database on the second machine with session data about the user who's
just after logging in. Instead of using cookies the URL has the session
ID for that user bolted on to the "continue" link (your "check my mail"
link I suppose) The second box (the one running IMP) can then generate
the cookie for IMP.

Hmm.. forget the above (I'm leaving it in because I think it's useful :)
I re-read your mail.
It could be as simple as IMP expected a different submit method? When
you login do you use the post or get method? 

If you can, run phpinfo() in mailbox.php3 and/or just print out the
contents of $form_data to see what's happening!
