So, there is no point in disabling imap with the sme8admin-contrib. The contrib should be adapted to this new policy.
Please lodge a bug report against that contrib & request the fix, that is the way to start the process happening.
A link to bugzilla is at the top of these Forums.
Your forum user account is not valid in bugzilla, so if you do not have a bugzilla login, please create a new one, using a valid email address as your user ID, & whatever password you prefer.
Using bugzilla is not difficult, if you can use the Forums then you can use Bugzilla.
Your input to help improve sme contribs is appreciated.
