Title : IMAP4 Multimailbox SEARCH Extension
Author(s) : B. Leiba, A. Melnikov
Filename : draft-ietf-morg-multimailbox-search-02.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2010-02-05
The IMAP4 specification allows the searching only of the selected
mailbox. A user often wants to search multiple mailboxes, and a
client that wishes to support this must issue a series of SELECT and
SEARCH commands, waiting for each to complete before moving on to the
next. This extension allows a client to search multiple mailboxes
with one command, limiting the round-trips and waiting for various
searches to complete, and not requiring disruption of the currently
selected mailbox. This also uses MAILBOX and TAG fields in ESEARCH
responses, allowing a client to pipeline the searches if it chooses.
