Is IMAP aggregation proxying really so difficult? I know about the problems of COPY (which in some cases in Cyrus-Murder is handled by the proxy itself), but don't know if there are any other gotchas.
Are you thinking about simple proxying, so that if you switch to mailbox1 it would do a connection to server1 which would completely handle it, so that until next SELECT/EXAMINE is done the proxy would just do dummy proxying?
Maybe something like that would work, but I'm not very interested in doing it. Also it would limit some features that could be made available (e.g. virtual mailboxes wouldn't work with it). There are many more interesting things that can be done with a smarter proxy.
