Hi, I just read that
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4978

..is being implemented in Thunderbird 3.  This is great news!

It's been a long time since we last discussed this and I don't think 
it's currently implemented in Dovecot, but since Cyrus just added it, 
any chance of getting support in Dovecot please?  (Fastmail seems to be 
supporting this effort)

On a similar note we had a previous thread about supporting TLS deflate 
- any chance you could investigate this again and add support on the 
Dovecot side so at least it would be feasible to submit a bug fix on the 
Thunderbird side?  (It looked like a one liner change back when we last 
discussed it?)


Thanks

Ed W
