There's no need for any of this. It can be setup as a separate camel provider which isn't compiled by default, using a different prefix. It could even just be compiled separately from the main tree and plugged in at run-time. I'm talking just the imap code here, not anything else. > > larger changes coming out soon.

Unless we decide to make it properly atomic, this is independent of the backend code. And even if we did its not that hard (and would probably be inside camel). _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
