IMAP SPECIAL-USE Folders (RFC 6154) in hmailserver

Post by Besserwisser » 2019-06-29 23:31

Hello,

will the hmailserver ever support IMAP SPECIAL-USE Folders (RFC 6154)? A lot of clients use or need this feature and it would avoid the problem with the different IMAP foldernames for sent, trash draft and archive.With Dovecot I can use this feature. But I do not want to build a complicated mail server on Linux.

Best regards

And RFC 6154 is still a 'proposed standard'
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6154
Just 'cause I link to a page and say little else doesn't mean I am not being nice.

I know that, but a lot of usefull RFCs have the "PROPOSED STANDARD" state e.g. RFC 2177 (IMAP4 IDLE command). But I am glad that the RFC 6154 is on the radar.
