Other required IMAP capabilities are LIST-EXTENDED (RFC - 5258), LIST-STATUS (RFC 5819) and UIDPLUS (RFC 4315), in addition to which - LITERAL+ (RFC 2088) and MULTIAPPEND (RFC 3502) are recommended for performance - reasons. + imapsync performs stateful synchronization between two IMAP4rev1 servers. + Such synchronization is made possible by the QRESYNC extension from [RFC7162]; + for convenience reasons servers must also support LIST-EXTENDED [RFC5258], + LIST-STATUS [RFC5819] and UIDPLUS [RFC4315]. . - Furthermore if both servers support the NOTIFY capability (RFC 5465), it is - possible to keep the connection alive and be notified of new updates as soon - as they arrive. + Furthermore, while imapsync can work with servers lacking support for LITERAL+ + [RFC2088] and MULTIAPPEND [RFC3502], these extensions greatly improve + performance by reducing the number of required round trips hence are + recommended. |
