Re: Status?

[Gili]

I am more concerned with the future of the IMAP server. Is it dead? Is there any chance we can actually make working on the IMAP server *the* purpose of the next versions of James? James is a pretty decent SMTP/POP3 mail server right now but there are no decent Java IMAP servers out there that I can see. None at all! I want to switch to IMAP as soon as possible, ironically because it'll allow me to move across different mail clients much easier and I won't have to worry about mailbox synchronization across clients and machines.

Can you guys please seriously consider working on this?

Thanks,
Gili
