It might be a bit blue sky, but if this daemon could (optionally) talk IMAP and translate tags into folders on the fly, this would be very useful for people who need imap access to their mail as well as from an custom notmuch client. Of course it would be nice to be able to just drop a back-end into some well tested server that dealt with authentication and the imap protocol. As long as we're tossing out projects :) d
