I just two weeks battling with Cyrus-imapd just to test out the Cypht JMAP client and frankly Cyrus is an ill-documented PITA, to put it bluntly. From charter-ietf-jmap-03 "Now that draft-ietf-jmap-mail is completed, the working group will produce specifications for related data types, beginning with calendars and contacts." So "JSON Mail Access Protocol" is done and jmap + websockets is on the way... https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8887.html so I guess, minus cyrus-imapd, it's down to these fledgling projects... https://github.com/search?q=jmap+server No doubt I will ask about Dovecots JMAP status in another 12 months.

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: https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/labels/3.2 Cheers, Bron. -- Bron Gondwana brong(a)fastmail.fm

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.

Thanks for chiming in Bron! I'm very interested in JMAP as you can see, but I'm also very curious - do you have any blog pages dedicated to the user experience vs standard IMAP? How it differs - and most importantly if it is truly better, and if so, how and why? I'd also love to read about actual user experiences - how about a collection of comments from your users? Thanks again, Charles p.s. Even though I've always hosted my own, I'm very tempted to sign up for a paid account to see for myself.

Re: JMAP support in Dovecot

by Aki Tuomi

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.

This would make implementing JMAP more efficient. Also would make many IMAP webmails more efficient. Would need to finish working on this some day. - We were planning to do a more generic "HTTP server architecture" that would allow more easily implementing JMAP and other HTTP servers, but that's not done. I'm actually not quite sure anymore what exactly it was supposed to do. - We have no plans to actually start working on JMAP itself, but nothing prevents outside contributions. It would likely be in a separate git repository anyway.

There doesn't seem to be much interest in JMAP ou there, which means it is going to be pretty hard to get something working well unless you write it yourself. James (from apache) might be a solution? What does Roundcube recommend? As I understand it you don't need a "Mail server" for JMAP as it uses JSON over http. Also, I doubt that 12 months will bring any changes, the last post I saw from Aki (didn't look too hard) mentioned Dovecot 2.5. -- 'People need vampires,' she [Granny] said.

Re: JMAP support in Dovecot

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?

I don't think anything has changed on this front.

Re: JMAP support in Dovecot

by Andrew Jones

Dear Charles In order to gain more info on JMAP implementations and progress being made on server-side implementations, I'd say the JMAP Google groups would contain the most information with all discussions. Currently the most current implementation is the JMAP proxy, which connects to an IMAP/CalDAV/CardDAV server, and Fastmail are hard at work at trying to get JMAP support into Cyrus. Clientside implementations include a mobile app being developed by Atmail, as well as Roundcube Next - it may be worth reaching out to them to see what they are using for development.
