Again, not a Dovecot issua - but can someone clarify better what IMAP subscriptions (SUBSCRIBE/UNSUBSCRIBE/LSUB) are and what they are used for?
I've seen a few times in Microsoft mail clients, the options to subscribe to folders and to "show only subscribed folders". I haven't played much with them, though. But what's the actual point? Except for being returned in the list of LSUB, what else changes when doing a SUBSCRIBE to a mailbox?
Are subscriptions supposed to be remembered by the server outside of the context of a session (so a client that connects to the server at some point and authenticates will already see in LSUB what a possibly other client has subscribed to in a previous session)?
Clarifications appreciated, regards, -- Tom
