P.S. I'm not looking for a complete roadmap, I can fill in most of the
|
|
detail.
|
|
|
|
Tags and UIDs are not a big deal.
|
|
|
|
What I want to do is get enough IMAP working that I can start testing
|
|
with a client, even if the server isn't 100% practical, instead of
|
|
implementing some critical command last, and finding out that I made
|
|
some critical mistake very early in the process.
|
|
|
|
Thanks in advance for any advice.
