We are currently exploring email archiving solutions. Is there a way to use an IMAP mailbox in read-only / archive mode? The requirement is that delibveries of new emails should be possible (via SMTP/LMTP), but no messages should be deleted via IMAP access. …
years ago i created a archive concept

Thanks for the hints. I'll have a look.
but however read
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_archiving
when it comes to i.e
Regulatory compliance etc
In the use case we have in mind the mailboxes belong to their respective users. It's just an extension of their normal mailbox, because they use a mail client that cannot handle large mailboxes (due to inadequate IMAP support). Also the usual retention polices apply, but the mail client in question can't handle even "normal" retention periods.
Best regards, René.
