Technical Summary
This spec extends IMAP to provide a way for clients to access
a piece of data that many servers already keep, the total size
of a mailbox.
Working Group Summary
The only topic of debate was how tightly to define the method
for calculating the size. Many servers already implement a
non-standard way to access this information, and many clients
want access to the information.
Document Quality
The Dovecot server already implements it. It was implemented
on the day it was proposed in the Cyrus IMAPd server. Other
vendors have stated their intention to implement. All the
server and client authors said that they would be able to
implement the standard easily and agreed it was the best way
to do it.
