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.
