Hi, Sounds to me like it can be implemented using sieve. Something like "if is in inbox & is read & is older than n days; then mark as unread". But this means you need to redeliever this mail somehow. Maybe like this: http://serverfault.com/questions/418681/run-sieve-on-maildir (http://serverfault.com/questions/418681/run-sieve-on-maildir) Regards

I would like to implement a 43Folder system[1] with dovecot and a mail user agent.
Use case:
- I have a new mail in my inbox. I read it and see that I can't handle it now. I want to handle this mail in 5 days.
- Now I want to have some sort of resubmission: the mail should be moved to a different location for these 5 days.
- After 5 days the mail should be moved to my inbox again.
How can this be done with Dovecot/IMAP?
I have programming experience, but I am new to Dovecot/IMAP.
I would like solve this with Dovecot only (without a database or web server).
Does the IMAP protocol over methods which could help?
