Please consider a stronger, broader statement saying that enabling it may
violate user's expectations of privacy.

I'm not in a position to cite chapter and voice on this now but folks
curious about the practical aspects of these considerations under US law
might find why many prefer POP to IMAP by looking at the recommendations
by, for example, The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) at <
