Hi! IMAP has an extension to reduce the bandwidth usage by compressing data. It is explained in RFC 4978:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4978 Dovecot supports this extension: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Compress The capability is only advertised after login. If COMPRESS=DEFLATE is present as a capability, the command "a COMPRESS DEFLATE" will enable it. Once the server answers with OK any remaining flow should be handled through zlib. It would convenient to implement that in mbsync for people using slow/expensive links to sync with IMAP.
