Re: PIMAP (draft-maes-lemonade-p-imap-08)?
Since there didn't seem to be any responses, sounds like this is something that'll need a financial sponsor if it is to be implemented. Amos -- Rob Carter said the following on 8/18/05 2:27 PM: Hello, Has there been any consideration given as yet to adding partial or full P-IMAP support to the Cyrus IMAP server in a future release? Alternatively, has anyone seen or heard of any work being done to build an open-source implementation of P-IMAP as a front-end for an existing IMAP4 server (like Cyrus?). Oracle Corp. has apparently released their first cut at P-IMAP support in their recent 10g announcement, but I'm hoping that there may be some non-proprietary implementations on the horizon... --Thanx, --Rob Carter-- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

Its not a working group document (its a pricate submission) and its merits are still being discussed in the lemonade group.

Its not a working group document (its a pricate submission) and its merits are still being discussed in the lemonade group. Unless it becomes a standards track document, you probably won't see it in Cyrus. BTW, the lemonade WG discussed push vs. pull for message submission and we reached consensus on the pull model, namely the CATENATE and URLAUTH extensions to IMAP and the BURL extension to Submission (SMTP). I already committed a CATENATE implementation to Cyrus 2.3, and I have a partial URLAUTH implementation that I have been working on. If/when I have time, I *might* write BURL code for Sendmail. Hopefully Oracle isn't trying to circumvent the WG and create its own defacto-standard by deploying P-IMAP code. -- Kenneth Murchison Oceana Matrix Ltd.
