Mainly it's about adding support for more IMAP commands (e.g. SEARCH), so that it doesn't necessarily have to be used as a rather dummy storage. (Although it always has to be possible to be used as a dummy storage, like it is now.) > As I think about using imapc, I'll just give the two use-cases I see for > me.

This will be fixed at some point. Otherwise this works the same way as other storage backends: You create namespace(s) for the folders you want to proxy. > 2) Proxy a whole mailbox _and use the folders in it as shared folders_. > That means account X on Server 1 (the dovecot box) is proxied via imapc > to Server 2 (some other server).

This should be possible, yes.
