Well unfortunately the majority of webmail clients are generally not linux
users or firefox users.  For the large number of IE clients, the mailbox
interface doesn't show me any part of the header bar, where it is supposed
to say:

"Inbox (xxx), links for: refresh, apply filters, & search; page 1 of X, 1 to
20 of XXX messages"

It's invisible.  Well without that, IMP's clearly missing some key
functionality for webmail.

And really thie fix is so trivial and harmless, it's a shame this app wasn't
tested in IE7 before debian's release.

Why not just get it fixed?
