A quick library for authenticating against an IMAP server. Useful for situations where LDAP is not available.

It can create users after a successful log, so everyone that has a valid email address on your server can have an account in your app!

It expects a model with a 'username' column. You must pass a host.

Example:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

imap_authenticatable :host => 'mail.example.com'
