<div class="section"><h2>What Is Apache James Protocols IMAP4?<a name="What_Is_Apache_James_Protocols_IMAP4"></a></h2> | |
<p>A library providing a flexible codec for IMAP4, command processors | |
and a sample data access layer.</p> | |
<p>In combination with a socket layer, and a mailbox persistence, | |
this library can be used to create an IMAP server.</p> | |
<p><a class="externalLink" href="http://james.apache.org/server/rfclist/imap4/rfc2060.txt">RFC 2060 IMAP4rev1</a> | |
is functionally complete, tested and usable. The data access layer is still | |
under optimization on performance perspectives. API is susceptible to change.</p> | |
<p>You can <a class="externalLink" href="http://james.apache.org/download.cgi">download</a> current 0.3 release. | |
The <a href="apidocs/">API</a> are susceptible to evolve.</p> | |
<p>There are many extensions defined for IMAP (see a list <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.iana.org/assignments/imap4-capabilities">here</a>)</p> | |
<p>Apache James IMAP implements the following:</p> | |
<ul> | |
<li>IMAP4rev1 (RFC 3501 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3501.txt)</li> | |
<li>NAMESPACE (in release 0.2) (RFC 2342 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2342.txt)</li> | |
<li>IDLE (in release 0.2) (RFC 2177 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2177.txt)</li> | |
<li>LITERAL+ (in release 0.2)</li> | |
<li>CHILDREN (in release 0.2)</li> | |
<li>WITHIN (in release 0.2)</li> | |
<li>UIDPLUS (in release 0.2)</li> | |
<li>UNSELECT (in release 0.2)</li> | |
<li>I18NLEVEL=1 (in release 0.2.1)</li> | |
<li>ESEARCH (in release 0.2.1)</li> | |
<li>SEARCHRES (in release 0.2.1)</li> | |
<li>AUTH=PLAIN (in release 0.2.1)</li> | |
<li>SASL-IR (in release 0.2.1)</li> | |
<li>ENABLE (in release 0.2.1)</li> | |
<li>CONDSTORE (RFC 4551 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4551.txt in release 0.3)</li> | |
<li>RESYNCH (RFC 5162 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5162.txt in trunk)</li> | |
</ul> | |
<p>We follow RFC2683 recommandations for our implementations:</p> | |
<ul> | |
<li>IMAP4 Implementation Recommandations (RFC 2683 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2683.txt)</li> | |
</ul> | |
<p>Interesting features:</p> | |
<ul> | |
<li>Users FLAGS</li> | |
</ul> | |
<p>Other RFCs of interest we are looking at:</p> | |
<ul> | |
<li>IMAP4 SORT and THREAD Extensions (RFC 5256 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5256.txt)</li> | |
</ul> | |
<p>We have <a class="externalLink" href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/mailbox-integration-tester/trunk/">integration tests</a> for IMAP.</p> | |
<p>Our implementation is also tested against external tools such as <a class="externalLink" href="http://www.imapwiki.org/ImapTest">http://www.imapwiki.org/ImapTest</a>.</p> | |
