What I can tell is I use IMAP METADATA  with roundcube as a sort of fork of Kolab project (which is using Cyrus for IMAP).

It was an attempt to wrote a plugin for thunderbird but is abandoned now.

Can be other use case I didn't know about.

There is no separate plugin. See https://doc.dovecot.org/settings/core/ #core_setting-imap_metadata on how to activate it.

Hi Aki and list,

Is there a list of which MUA's make use of IMAP METADATA ?  I read the RFC and I noticed that the original author worked for Apple, but I haven't been able to determine if any Apple Mail versions support it.

Does anyone know ?

Thanks,

• J
