there are now two servers listed there. The idea is to have a page that
|
|
lists major bugs that are unlikely to get fixed in servers (i.e. big
|
|
commercial ones that don't really care).

I think we have only one deliberate break from the spec, and that's that we
|
|
don't do substring searches.
|
|
|
|
I know there are other issues, like we sometimes don't get the size quite
|
|
right (comes of storing the message with just LF line endings and having to
|
|
convert to CRLF), but mostly we tend to bend the spec but not break them...
|
|
matching the IMAP mailbox model with the gmail one is tough.
|
|
|
|
I tried running Timo's tests against gmail, but its pretty hard to debug
|
|
failures, and the set of tests isn't quite wide or separable. Its somewhere
|
|
on the todo list to work that again.
|
|
|
|
I would say that our biggest issue with IMAP is that the amount of resources
|
|
required for some of the commands is really high, which is hard to optimize
|
|
for or to fairly share resources.
