HTTP Access to Email Stores



Hi folks,

Lisa Dusseault has started spec work on using HTTP and Atom to access e-mail stores:

  http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-dusseault-httpmail-00

From a quick look at that I-D, it should be a fairly easy job to implement this as a mailbox driver for mutt, probably relying on external HTTP, XML and Atom libraries. The notion that each message has a unique HTTP URI should interact very nicely with the way in which mutt "thinks" about mailboxes and messages.

Any takers?

Regards,
