Re: Selecting server based on IMP server

Like I said, my PHP is a little rusty. I think the last time I really worked
with PHP was 1999. Here's what I've put together from a naïve reading
of the other code:

imp/lib/api.php:

$_services['server'] = array(
   'type' => 'string'
);

function _imp_server()
{
   return $imp['server'];
}

/etc/horde/gollem/backends.php:

$backends['auto'] = array(
   'name' => 'Automatic',
   'driver' => 'ftp',
   'preferred' => '',
   'hordeauth' => full,
   'params' => array(
       'hostspec' => Imp::server,
   ),
   'root' => '/',
   'home' => '',
   'createhome' => 'false',
   // 'filter' => '^regex$',
   'attributes' => array('type', 'name', 'download', 'modified', 'size',
'permission', 'owner')
);

As I'm sure you can guess, this results in a blank page. What should the API
call look like when used?
