Funny.  I thought it *was* a CMU project, and that CMU is just nice
enough to allow folks outside of CMU to use it.  It is not copyleft
or public domain source.  It is something they developed--correct me
if I'm wrong--to replace an entirely non-standards communications
system they were using.  I'm just bloody grateful that CMU is
sophisticated enough to allow others to use this well developed
code, I think something folks sometimes forget.  Believe me, being
able to release code like this that is developed by university staff
is no small feat!

I think the authors of the O'Reilly IMAP book are planning an update
in a year or so.  Right now they're involved in other commitments,
including raising a new child.  ;-)
