Hi!

We are working on including JMAP support to Dovecot. At this moment I cannot give any promise for exact version, but hopefully it will be part of v2.3

Hi Marcus

Thanks for your helpful reply.

Do you know what is going on with JMAP development into Dovecot 2.5?

It's difficult to get any sort of information from the roadmap and there are no Dovecot forums.

One of the main reasons I'm interested in JMAP is because of Roundcube Next and also the other clients it will power. Sadly, there has been little going on and having emailed Thomas, he is no longer involved in Roundcube Next - which is a shame. The Kolab guys are really taking liberties here, and trying their product, the thing is littered with bugs everywhere.

Are you able to comment on what is going on with JMAP development into Dovecot?

Thanks

Unfortunately we don't have any beta version yet for testing. Hopefully sometime next year.

Hi Aki,

Someone just asked in the bug for Thunderbird for this, so...

Is there a git branch that they could use to start playing with what is there? If not, any idea when that might happen?

It sounds like someone following the Thunderbird bug is interested in working on this, but they obviously need something to test against.

Thanks,

Charles

Hi Charles,

We are actually pretty close to a complete implementation in Cyrus now, and there's the proxy of course. We'll be doing a release candidate of Cyrus 3.0 with JMAP support on January 13th.

There's also the hosted copy of the JMAP proxy, which I'm afraid I haven't been giving much love recently. It's very close to feature complete though.

What number is the Thunderbird bug? I appear to not be CCd, or missing the emails from it. I should probably sign up! Feel free to ask me anything directly as well.

Bron.

Hello Aki,

Well, it has been over 3 years since I last asked...

You had said initial JMAP support would hopefully make it into 2.3. Since it didn't, I'm hoiping it isn't too far away.

There is some movement with the new Thunderbird team on this, but they can't really start serious work on adding JMAP support until there is a server implementation to test against.

Is JMAP support still hopefully on the near term roadmap?

Thanks

Charles

Unfortunately we have not been able to work on this much, but also the JMAP spec was until very recently still being worked. We have open dialogue with the Thunderbird people, they haven't so far indicated any pressing need for JMAP in Dovecot.

This said, JMAP is still very much in our roadmap. Perhaps just not as close as I initially thought.

Thanks Aki - no pressing need because of the old chicken/egg problem I guess...

That said, a few tidbits...

The Thunderbird Devs are using Topicbox for discussing Thunderbird UI development, and Topicbox is built directly on top of JMAP for the email integration (I'm not sure they even knew this until I told them yesterday):

From: https://fastmail.blog/2018/12/27/jmap-is-on-the-home-straight/

"But enough about the software, how about the experience! When we created our brand new Topicbox product, we built directly on top of JMAP for the email. We also used JMAP-inspired APIs for the rest of the product experience, so Topicbox’s early users have been on JMAP for over a year now."

Lastly, Fastmail is now rolling it out - 30% of their userbase is on JMAP, and all new users are automatically on it. Cyrus also provides experimental JMAP support in their development snapshots.

So, maybe - hopefully - this might be some reasons to push that development up some.

if not, its good to know that it is at least still on the roadmap.

Obviously I'd love to help out in any way possible here! We're very keen to see JMAP support in Dovecot to encourage others to move towards it as well.

Actually, 99% of our user base has been on JMAP for about 4 months now! The one remaining percent was users with the old version of our mobile apps, and they're being cut off next month.

As for JMAP mail and JMAP core - they're currently with the RFC editor for the final round of edits - they should have assigned RFC numbers in the next few weeks I would imagine. There will be some minor editorial polish, but the way it works is entirely stable now, there won't be more changes.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-jmap-core/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-jmap-mail/

We're planning to have full support for everything in those specs into Cyrus IMAP version 3.2 as well. Right now there's a couple of gaps that we either don't use at FastMail or are papering around with our perl middleware. You can see the remaining tasks here as we progress:

The demo proxy was a pretty quick hack and isn't very efficient, but it should be working. It does a fairly slow background import for existing accounts, so I'd recommend using small tests accounts.

What particular bit is broken for you? (apart from the known not-working authentication flow)
