Two years on so what is the status of JMAP support in Dovecot now? I don't think anything has changed on this front. Last I saw, only Cyrus has partial support for JMAP mail, but not the other parts of JMAP.
Such a pity. I just two weeks battling with Cyrus-imapd just to test out the Cypht JMAP client and frankly Cyrus is an ill-documented PITA, to put it bluntly.
That was my experience with it many years ago.
so I guess, minus cyrus-imapd, it's down to these fledgling projects...
Not a lot there and about half of it hasn't nbeen touched in 5 years.
There doesn't seem to be much interest in JMAP ou there, which means it is going to be pretty hard to get something working well unless you write it yourself.
James (from apache) might be a solution? What does Roundcube recommend? As I understand it you don't need a "Mail server" for JMAP as it uses JSON over http.
Also, I doubt that 12 months will bring any changes, the last post I saw from Aki (didn't look too hard) mentioned Dovecot 2.5.
