The IESG has received a request from the Email mailstore and eXtensions To Revise or Amend WG (extra) to consider the following document: - 'IMAP Extension for only using and returning UIDs' <draft-ietf-extra-imap-uidonly-06.txt> as Experimental RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2024-03-15. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The UIDONLY extension to the Internet Message Access Protocol (RFC 3501/RFC 9051) allows clients to enable a mode in which information about mailbox changes is returned using only UIDs. Message numbers are not returned in responses, and can't be used in requests once this extension is enabled. This helps both clients and servers to reduce resource usage required to maintain a map between message numbers and UIDs. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-extra-imap-uidonly/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
