- What is the policy of internatinalization for IMAP2 ?
-
- I think the imprementation of the IMAP2 search facility considerablly
- affrects the internatinalization of IMAP2. If this facility is not
- well-designed , IMAP2 can't be multilingual.

- If delivery is to a pool of centrally-managed servers, why does the user

- I agree that ph should be evaluated before falling into the X. hole
- (though Michigan claims that X.500 over the new light-weight stack is
- working well for them), but my question is: why is this an IMAP issue?
- I would have guessed it was an MUA function. (Actually, pair of
- functions, as I'm interested in both the usual human-initiated W.P. search
- for someone's address, plus the ability for the MUA to *validate*
- addresses --at least local ones-- before sending the msg. It's always
- annoying to reply to a msg that has a bunch of addresses, one of which is
- a typo.)
