First of all I'd like to say that this is by far the best free / open source webmail app ever created. I think when it's finishd it will be the definition of perfection in every way. Great work.
I have a suggestion for a feature or set of features. Basically these would be relating to setting this up in a company Intranet environment. I'm quite keen for staff to use a webmail system like this rather than traditional email clients. One thing that would be really handy for this would be global address book entries; that is address book entries that are controlled centrally by an administrator and can not be modified or deleted by each user. There may also be other features that would benefit that form of deployment. I'd be happy to develope these features myself but would fear that future updates may clash with my changes.
Cheers.

This would usual be implemented using a LDAP directory. It is on the roadmap, as far is I know. I thought as well that somebody is already implementing this..?
It would be a really good addition indeed! LDAP is currently the only thing that holds me from a deployment for beta testing. (And the fact it's alpha software...)

If someone is developing it, let me know. Otherwise, this is something I am interested in and I could run with it.

Yes, there's already somebody working on it. You can contact Justin justin@babel.com.au for further details and suggestions.

Justin is actually working on something a little different - querying public LDAP servers through a different interface (not the existing address book interface, which it sounds like Pieter wants). I was working on global and personal LDAP address books for this purpose but I'm afraid it's been pushed to the bottom of my priority list due to work obligations.
Anil, I do have a bunch of backend code written if you are interested in helping with it (or taking it over).
