Subject: [Imap-protocol] Automap feature when rfc6154 is not supported (for
	imapsync).
Message-ID: <5630E048.7060001@laposte.net>

Hello imap folks,

I'm currently working on automapping folders on both sides,
for example:

Sent <-> Sent Messages

I've done the part where both sides support rfc6154, like Gmail or
Dovecot imap servers. Foe example, it simplifies Gmail to Gmail migrations
when the language is not the same on both sides, it's the case when one
side is configured by default, in English. This automapping works
fine.

But not all imap server softwares support rfc6154. So I add also an
automap hardcoded when one side or both don't support special folders
as described in rfc6154.

This way it will minimize headaches of  playing with manual mapping
(--regextrans2 imapsync option) in most of the cases.
Email sysadmins for many different languages should appreciate.

I need a list of common folders names used for special folders
described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6154

I start with:

\All     => "All" "All Mail"

\Archive => "Archive"

\Drafts  => "Drafts"

\Flagged => "Flagged" "Starred"

\Junk    => "Junk" "Spam"

\Sent    => "Sent" "Sent Messages" "Sent Items"

\Trash   => "Trash"

Any comment or suggestion will be appreciated.
English, German, Italian, Spanish, French or any language are welcome!

I don't know what are the imap server softwares supporting rfc6154.
Exchange, Zimbra, Office365 aren't seem to support it.

PS: If there is a better place to talk about this feature, just tell
me, I will switch the discussion there.

Thanks in advance.
