I'm working on optimizing Squirrelmail performance. Their web site suggested enabling "server-side sorting" and "server-side threading". See below for pre- and post-login messages from UW IMAP:
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 LOGIN-REFERRALS STARTTLS AUTH=LOGIN] hpcaz.com IMAP4rev1 2001.315rh at Wed, 9 Jun 2004 15:31:45 -0700 (MST) a01 OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 IDLE NAMESPACE MAILBOX-REFERRALS SCAN SORT THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT MULTIAPPEND] User tsmith <at> hpcaz.com authenticated My questions are this: 1) I see that SORT is listed as a CAPABILITY--is this all that I need to be concerned with or are there "tweaks" to make it more efficient? 2) There are multiple THREAD CAPABILITY entries above. Are there more potential THREAD features that can be added? 3) Is there a way to tell if the IMAP clients are actually using the CAPABILITYs? That is, how can I test to ensure the "CAPABILITY" is working properly? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ For information about this mailing list, and its archives, see: http://www.washington.edu/imap/c-client-list.html ------------------------------------------------------------------
