Um, I'm using Dovecot to test the QRESYNC support (which I just committed to master). $ ssh twosheds /usr/sbin/dovecot --exec-mail imap * PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS] Logged in as dwmw2 The only thing I want to use that it doesn't yet support is NOTIFY. > but I see that the IMAPX implementation in > Evo is constantly being fixed/updated (by David Woodhouse lately) while > the IMAP backend seems stagnant (or stable?). > > Should I switch my accounts to use IMAPX instead of IMAP?

There are some IMAPX fixes in 2.30.2 which you wouldn't want to be without, including a workaround for the fact that the crappy Exchange server lies to clients about RFC822.SIZE, leading to truncated mails. -- David Woodhouse Open Source Technology Centre [email protected] Intel Corporation _______________________________________________ evolution-hackers mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
