Tellier Benoit commented on IMAP-370: ------------------------------------- I just contributed a fix for the inheritance fix. I also activate the MOVE capability if supported by the backend. > Consider supporting the upcoming MOVE extension > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: IMAP-370 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAP-370 > Project: James Imap > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Protocol > Reporter: Andrzej Rusin > Attachments: IMAP-370-2.patch, IMAP-370-capability-v1.patch, > IMAP-370-v1.patch > > > As we see at > http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-imapmove-command/ballot/ IETF is > about to finally accept the IMAP MOVE extension. > This extension enables great performance optimization possibilities for the > more advanced Mailstore backends, eg the ones that use a underlying > relational or non-relational database: > One of the most common usage scenarios in IMAP is moving messages across > folders, and with the MOVE extention it can be finally accomplished without a > COPY/DELETE cycle on certain Mailbox backends. > Therefore, in my belief, it would be very nice to have that extension > implemented in James. > Some of the bundled Mailstore implementations already are based on SQL/noSQL > datasources, and can directly benefit from it. > Some of the independent Mailstore implementations (including mine) can > benefit from it too. > Some of IMAP clients (including Thunderbird as of 3.something) already > support that extension or the X-MOVE or X-AOL-MOVE one. > So James has a great opportunity to be the leader of standards adoption on > the server side. > What do you think?
