Hi Robert,

and who would want that sort of feature, when he can have imap?

IMAP is a great example of a very bad protocol totally unsuitable for
the internet

RSS/Atom is
more for webapps, which want to inform a user of site updates.

that's the point: email storage should a RESTful internet application.
the protocols should be capable of being implemented as a web
application. only then will it play well with the rest of the world
wide web.

This was only invented because there is no such feature as imap there...

server push can't scale
