% InterIMAP & PullIMAP
% [Guilhem Moulin](mailto:guilhem@fripost.org)
InterIMAP synchronizes emails and their metadata between a remote IMAP
server and local storage. By leveraging the [*Quick Mailbox
Resynchronization*][RFC 7162] IMAP extension, it can offer [*much better
performance*](benchmark.html) than tools such as [OfflineIMAP].
PullIMAP retrieves messages from an IMAP mailbox and deliver them
locally. It can use the the [*IDLE*][RFC 2177] IMAP extension to reduce
both latency and network traffic.
[RFC 2177]: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2177
[RFC 7162]: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7162
