Hi, The IMAP variant of base64 will probably be referred to in next version of RFC3548.

I thought base64 was one thing but there is at least 3 variants I know about today. I think IMAP will probably not withdraw their base64 version and we will have to live with it. Therefore it is worth considering to include the full table to keep the good overview already existing in your document (RFC3548) Best Regards From, Per.
