Subject: [Imap-protocol] Session flags.
Message-ID: <4CC1E456.5050208@aol.com>

  A flag can be permanent or session-only on a per-flag basis.
   Permanent flags are those which the client can add or remove from the
   message flags permanently; that is, concurrent and subsequent
   sessions will see any change in permanent flags.  Changes to session
   flags are valid only in that session.

Since I wasn't involved when the spec was hammered out, I have a question. 

Why are session flags useful?  Is there a client that makes use of this 
temporary flag change.
