horde-imp-ingo and maildrop

Hi,

I have posted my problem in the IMP Google group (http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.www.horde-imp/browse_frm/thread/44866389388b107c) - no help yet - but after further digging I figured that the "fix" i'm looking for might come easier from this group.

I have an SME 7 box and the imp-ingo-horde configured by the SME's installation. This box runs a local email server with fetchmail-maildrop-qmail, and maildrop filters are set up for all users that need this feature. I need the users to be able to occasionaly use webmail (imp), mostly for its additional fetchmail capability (so the users can add "non-standard" email sources). My problem is that imp's fetchmail bypasses maildrop and feeds the messages directly in the Inbox (to IMAP). While I understand that I can set up filters in imp-ingo, I don't want to duplicate the existing filtering.

So my original question was:
Is there a way to tell imp's fetchmail to feed the incoming mail to maildrop before or after applying its own filters?

On my further "digging", I found the backends.php file (ingo/config/) and its associated templates. I'm not sure this is the right spot to tackle, but if it is, the template for the maildrop segment (130maildrop) only has a commented "demo", that I'm not sure how to change.

Bottom line, what I (really) need is to have the messages retreived by imp's fetchmail pass through the existing maildrop filters and, if possible (would be nice) to add the filters defined in imp to the messages fetched while in webmail. Please help.

Thank you.
