Description of Working Group:

The IETF IMAP extensions Working Group shall revise and publish standards-track extensions to IMAP4 for performing the following functions:

1. Sorting, threading, and viewing (to be dealt with by one or more mechanisms)
2. Access Control Lists
3. Message-level annotations
Revising the base IMAP4rev1 specification is out of the scope of this WG. However, this WG will ensure that whatever extensions it does propose do not worsen any existing problems in the base specification of IMAP, nor do they make any such problems harder to address in the future.

Goals and Milestones:

Submit an Internet-Draft enumerating known problems to avoid in the base specification

Submit revised Sorting/Threading/Viewing spec(s) to IESG
