+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+1.  Overview and Rationale
+
+   The IDLE command (defined in [RFC2177]) provides a way for the client
+   to go into a mode where the IMAP server pushes it notifications about
+   IMAP mailstore events for the selected mailbox.  However, the IDLE
+   extension doesn't restrict or control which server events can be
+   sent, or what information the server sends in response to each event.
+   Also, IDLE only applies to the selected mailbox, thus requiring an
+   additional TCP connection per mailbox.
+
+   This document defines an IMAP extension that allows clients to
+   express their preferences about unsolicited events generated by the
+   server.  The extension allows clients to only receive events that
+   they are interested in, while servers know that they don't need to go
+   to the effort of generating certain types of untagged responses.
+
+   Without the NOTIFY command defined in this document, an IMAP server
+   will only send information about mailstore changes to the client in
+   the following cases:
+
+   -  as the result of a client command (e.g., FETCH responses to a
+      FETCH or STORE command),
+   -  as unsolicited responses sent just before the end of a command
+      (e.g., EXISTS or EXPUNGE) as the result of changes in other
+      sessions, and
+   -  during an IDLE command.
+
+   The NOTIFY command extends what information may be returned in those
+   last two cases, and also permits and requires the server to send
+   information about updates between commands.  The NOTIFY command also
+   allows for the client to extend what information is sent unsolicited
+   about the selected mailbox and to request some update information to
+   be sent regarding other mailboxes.
+
+   The interaction between IDLE and NOTIFY commands is described in
+   Section 4.
+
+   For the new messages delivered to or appended to the selected
+   mailbox, the NOTIFY command can be used to request that a set of
+   attributes be sent to the client in an unsolicited FETCH response.
+   This allows a client to be a passive recipient of events and new mail
+   and to be able to maintain full synchronisation without having to
+   issue any subsequent commands except to modify the state of the
+   mailbox on the server.

+
+
+   Some mobile clients, however, may want mail "pushed" only for mail
+   that matches a SEARCH pattern.  To meet that need, [RFC5267] is
+   augmented by this document to extend the UPDATE return option to
+   specify a list of fetch-atts to be returned when a new message is
+   delivered or appended in another session.
+
+2.  Conventions Used in This Document
+
+   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
+   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
+   document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
+
+   The acronym MSN stands for Message Sequence Numbers (see Section
+   2.3.1.2 of [RFC3501]).
+
+   Example lines prefaced by "C:" are sent by the client and ones
+   prefaced by "S:", by the server.  "[...]" means elision.
+
+3.  The NOTIFY Extension
+
+   IMAP servers that support this extension advertise the NOTIFY
+   capability.  This extension adds the NOTIFY command as defined in
+   Section 5.1.
+
+   A server implementing this extension is not required to implement
+   LIST-EXTENDED [RFC5258], even though a NOTIFY-compliant server must
+   be able to return extended LIST responses, defined in [RFC5258].
+
+3.1.  The NOTIFY Command
+
+   Arguments:  "SET"
+               Optional STATUS indicator
+               Mailboxes to be watched
+               Events about which to notify the client
+
+   Or
+   Arguments:  "NONE"
+
+   Responses:  Possibly untagged STATUS responses (for SET)
+
+   Result:     OK - The server will notify the client as requested.
+               NO -  Unsupported NOTIFY event, NOTIFY too complex or
+                     expensive, etc.
+               BAD - Command unknown, invalid, unsupported, or has
+                     unknown arguments.

+
+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+   The NOTIFY command informs the server that the client listens for
+   event notifications all the time (even when no command is in
+   progress), and requests the server to notify it about the specified
+   set of events.  The NOTIFY command has two forms.  NOTIFY NONE
+   specifies that the client is not interested in any kind of event
+   happening on the server.  NOTIFY SET replaces the current list of
+   interesting events with a new list of events.
+
+   Until the NOTIFY command is used for the first time, the server only
+   sends notifications while a command is being processed, and notifies
+   the client about these events on the selected mailbox (see Section 5
+   for definitions): MessageNew, MessageExpunge, or FlagChange.  It does
+   not notify the client about any events on other mailboxes.
+
+   The effect of a successful NOTIFY command lasts until the next NOTIFY
+   command or until the IMAP connection is closed.
+
+   A successful NOTIFY SET command MUST cause the server to immediately
+   return any accumulated changes to the currently selected mailbox (if
+   any), such as flag changes and new or expunged messages.  Thus, a
+   successful NOTIFY SET command implies an implicit NOOP command.
+
+   The NOTIFY SET command can request notifications of message-related
+   changes to the selected mailbox, whatever that may be at the time the
+   message notifications are being generated.  This is done by
+   specifying either the SELECTED or the SELECTED-DELAYED mailbox
+   selector (see Section 6.1) in the NOTIFY SET command.  If the
+   SELECTED/SELECTED-DELAYED mailbox selector is not specified in the
+   NOTIFY SET command, this means that the client doesn't want to
+   receive any <message-event>s for the currently selected mailbox.
+   This is the same as specifying SELECTED NONE.
+
+   The client can also request notifications on other mailboxes by name
+   or by a limited mailbox pattern match.  Message-related notifications
+   returned for the currently selected mailbox will be those specified
+   by the SELECTED/SELECTED-DELAYED mailbox specifier, even if the
+   selected mailbox also appears by name (or matches a pattern) in the
+   command.  Non-message-related notifications are controlled by mailbox
+   specifiers other than SELECTED/SELECTED-DELAYED.
+
+   If the NOTIFY command enables MessageNew, MessageExpunge,
+   AnnotationChange, or FlagChange notifications for a mailbox other
+   than the currently selected mailbox, and the client has specified the
+   STATUS indicator parameter, then the server MUST send a STATUS
+   response for that mailbox before NOTIFY's tagged OK.  If MessageNew
+   is enabled, the STATUS response MUST contain MESSAGES, UIDNEXT, and
+   UIDVALIDITY.  If MessageExpunge is enabled, the STATUS response MUST
+   contain MESSAGES.  If either AnnotationChange or FlagChange are

+
+
+   included and the server also supports the CONDSTORE [RFC4551] and/or
+   QRESYNC [RFC5162] extensions, the STATUS response MUST contain
+   UIDVALIDITY and HIGHESTMODSEQ.  Absence of the STATUS indicator
+   parameter allows the client to avoid the additional STATUS responses.
+   This might be useful if the client already retrieved this information
+   before issuing the NOTIFY command.
+
+   Clients are advised to limit the number of mailboxes used with
+   NOTIFY.  Particularly, if a client asks for events for all accessible
+   mailboxes, the server may swamp the client with updates about shared
+   mailboxes.  This may reduce the client's battery life.  Also, this
+   wastes both server and network resources.
+
+   For each mailbox specified, the server verifies that the client has
+   access using the following test:
+
+   -  If the name does not refer to an existing mailbox, the server MUST
+      ignore it.
+
+   -  If the name refers to a mailbox that the client can't LIST, the
+      server MUST ignore it.  For a server that implements [RFC4314],
+      this means that if the client doesn't have the 'l' (lookup) right
+      for the name, then the server MUST ignore the mailbox.  This
+      behavior prevents disclosure of potentially confidential
+      information to clients who don't have rights to know it.
+
+   -  If the name refers to a mailbox that the client can LIST (e.g., it
+      has the 'l' right from [RFC4314]), but the client doesn't have
+      another right required for processing of the specified event(s),
+      then the server MUST respond with an untagged extended LIST
+      response containing the \NoAccess name attribute.
+
+   The server SHOULD return the tagged OK response if the client has
+   access to at least one of the mailboxes specified in the current list
+   of interesting events.  The server MAY return the tagged NO response
+   if the client has no access to any of the specified mailboxes and no
+   access can ever be granted in the future (e.g., the client specified
+   an event for 'Subtree Bar/Foo', 'Bar/Foo' doesn't exist, and LIST
+   returns \Noinferiors for the parent 'Bar').
+
+   If the notification would be prohibitively expensive for the server
+   (e.g., "notify me of all flag changes in all mailboxes"), the server
+   MAY refuse the command with a tagged NO [NOTIFICATIONOVERFLOW]
+   response.

+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+   If the client requests information for events of an unsupported type,
+   the server MUST refuse the command with a tagged NO response (not a
+   BAD).  This response SHOULD contain the BADEVENT response code, which
+   MUST list names of all events supported by the server.
+
+   Here's an example:
+
+         S: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 NOTIFY]
+         C: a login bob alice
+         S: a OK Password matched
+         C: b notify set status (selected MessageNew (uid
+            body.peek[header.fields (from to subject)]) MessageExpunge)
+            (subtree Lists MessageNew)
+         S: * STATUS Lists/Lemonade (UIDVALIDITY 4 UIDNEXT 9999 MESSAGES
+            500)
+         S: [...]
+         S: * STATUS Lists/Im2000 (UIDVALIDITY 901 UIDNEXT 1 MESSAGES 0)
+         S: b OK done
+         C: c select inbox
+         S: [...] (the usual 7-8 responses to SELECT)
+         S: c OK INBOX selected
+               (Time passes.  A new message is delivered to mailbox
+               Lists/Lemonade.)
+         S: * STATUS Lists/Lemonade (UIDVALIDITY 4 UIDNEXT 10000
+            MESSAGES 501)
+               (Time passes.  A new message is delivered to inbox.)
+         S: * 127 FETCH (UID 127001 BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (From To
+            Subject)] {75}
+         S: Subject: Re: good morning
+         S: From: alice@example.org
+         S: To: bob@example.org
+         S:
+         S: )
+               (Time passes.  The client decides it wants to know about
+               one more mailbox.  As the client already knows necessary
+               STATUS information for all mailboxes below the Lists
+               mailbox, and because "notify set status" would cause
+               STATUS responses for *all* mailboxes specified in the
+               NOTIFY command, including the ones for which the client
+               already knows STATUS information, the client issues an
+               explicit STATUS request for the mailbox to be added to
+               the watch list, followed by the NOTIFY SET without the
+               STATUS parameter.)
+         C: d STATUS misc (UIDVALIDITY UIDNEXT MESSAGES)
+         S: * STATUS misc (UIDVALIDITY 1 UIDNEXT 999)

+         S: e OK done
+
+4.  Interaction with the IDLE Command
+
+   If IDLE [RFC2177] (as well as this extension) is supported, then
+   while processing any IDLE command, the server MUST send exactly the
+   same events as instructed by the client using the NOTIFY command.
+
+   NOTIFY makes IDLE unnecessary for some clients.  If a client does not
+   use MSNs and '*' in commands, it can request MessageExpunge and
+   MessageNew for the selected mailbox by using the NOTIFY command
+   instead of entering the IDLE mode.
+
+   A client that uses MSNs and '*' in commands can still use the NOTIFY
+   command if it specifies the SELECTED-DELAYED mailbox specifier in the
+   NOTIFY command.
+
+5.  Event Types
+
+   Only some of the events in [RFC5423] can be expressed in IMAP, and
+   for some of them there are several possible ways to express the
+   event.
+
+   This section specifies the events of which an IMAP server can notify
+   an IMAP client, and how.
+
+   The server SHOULD omit notifying the client if the event is caused by
+   this client.  For example, if the client issues CREATE and has
+   requested a MailboxName event that would cover the newly created
+   mailbox, the server SHOULD NOT notify the client of the MailboxName
+   change.
+
+   All event types described in this document require the 'l' and 'r'
+   rights (see [RFC4314]) on all observed mailboxes.  Servers that don't
+   implement [RFC4314] should map the above rights to their access-
+   control model.
+
+   If the FlagChange and/or AnnotationChange events are specified,
+   MessageNew and MessageExpunge MUST also be specified by the client.
+   Otherwise, the server MUST respond with the tagged BAD response.
+
+   If one of MessageNew or MessageExpunge is specified, then both events
+   MUST be specified.  Otherwise, the server MUST respond with the
+   tagged BAD response.
+
+

+
+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+   The client can instruct the server not to send an event by omitting
+   the necessary event from the list of events specified in NOTIFY SET,
+   by using the NONE event specifier in the NOTIFY SET, or by using
+   NOTIFY NONE.  In particular, NOTIFY SET ... NONE can be used as a
+   snapshot facility by clients.
+
+5.1.  FlagChange and AnnotationChange
+
+   If the flag and/or message annotation change happens in the selected
+   mailbox, the server MUST notify the client by sending an unsolicited
+   FETCH response, which MUST include UID and FLAGS/ANNOTATION FETCH
+   data items.  It MAY also send new FLAGS and/or OK [PERMANENTFLAGS
+   ...] responses.
+
+   If a search context is in effect as specified in [RFC5267], an
+   ESEARCH ADDTO or ESEARCH REMOVEFROM will also be generated, if
+   appropriate.  In this case, the FETCH response MUST precede the
+   ESEARCH response.
+
+   If the change happens in another mailbox, then the server responds
+   with a STATUS response.  The exact content of the STATUS response
+   depends on various factors.  If CONDSTORE [RFC4551] and/or QRESYNC
+   [RFC5162] are enabled by the client, then the server sends a STATUS
+   response that includes at least HIGHESTMODSEQ and UIDVALIDITY status
+   data items.  If the number of messages with the \Seen flag changes,
+   the server MAY also include the UNSEEN data item in the STATUS
+   response.  If CONDSTORE/QRESYNC is not enabled by the client and the
+   server chooses not to include the UNSEEN data item, the server does
+   not notify the client.  When this event is requested, the server MUST
+   notify the client about mailbox UIDVALIDITY changes.  This is done by
+   sending a STATUS response that includes UIDVALIDITY.
+
+   FlagChange covers the MessageRead, MessageTrash, FlagsSet, and
+   FlagsClear events in [RFC5423].
+
+   Example in the selected mailbox:
+      S: * 99 FETCH (UID 9999 FLAGS ($Junk))
+
+   And in another mailbox, with CONDSTORE in use:
+      S: * STATUS Lists/Lemonade (HIGHESTMODSEQ 65666665 UIDVALIDITY
+      101)
+

+
+
+5.2.  MessageNew
+
+   This covers both MessageNew and MessageAppend in [RFC5423].
+
+   If the new/appended message is in the selected mailbox, the server
+   notifies the client by sending an unsolicited EXISTS response,
+   followed by an unsolicited FETCH response containing the information
+   requested by the client.  A FETCH response SHOULD NOT be generated
+   for a new message created by the client on this particular
+   connection, for instance, as the result of an APPEND or COPY command
+   to the selected mailbox performed by the client itself.  The server
+   MAY also send a RECENT response, if the server marks the message as
+   \Recent.
+
+   Note that a single EXISTS response can be returned for multiple
+   MessageAppend/MessageNew events.
+
+   If a search context is in effect as specified in [RFC5267], an
+   ESEARCH ADDTO will also be generated, if appropriate.  In this case,
+   the EXISTS response MUST precede the ESEARCH response.  Both the
+   NOTIFY command and the SEARCH and SORT commands (see Section 7) can
+   specify attributes to be returned for new messages.  These attributes
+   SHOULD be combined into a single FETCH response.  The server SHOULD
+   avoid sending duplicate data.  The FETCH response(s) MUST follow any
+   ESEARCH ADDTO responses.
+
+   If the new/appended message is in another mailbox, the server sends
+   an unsolicited STATUS (UIDNEXT MESSAGES) response for the relevant
+   mailbox.  If the CONDSTORE extension [RFC4551] and/or the QRESYNC
+   extension [RFC5162] is enabled, the HIGHESTMODSEQ status data item
+   MUST be included in the STATUS response.
+
+   The client SHOULD NOT use FETCH attributes that implicitly set the
+   \seen flag, or that presuppose the existence of a given bodypart.
+   UID, MODSEQ, FLAGS, ENVELOPE, BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS... and
+   BODY/BODYSTRUCTURE may be the most useful attributes.
+
+   Note that if a client asks to be notified of MessageNew events with
+   the SELECTED mailbox specifier, the number of messages can increase
+   at any time, and therefore the client cannot refer to a specific
+   message using the MSN/UID '*'.
+
+   Example in the selected mailbox:
+      S: * 444 EXISTS
+      S: * 444 FETCH (UID 9999)
+
+   And in another mailbox, without CONDSTORE enabled:
+      S: * STATUS Lists/Lemonade (UIDNEXT 10002 MESSAGES 503)

+
+
+5.3.  MessageExpunge
+
+   If the expunged message or messages are in the selected mailbox, the
+   server notifies the client using EXPUNGE (or VANISHED, if [RFC5162]
+   is supported by the server and enabled by the client).
+
+   If a search context is in effect, as specified in [RFC5267], an
+   ESEARCH REMOVEFROM will also be generated, if appropriate.
+
+   If the expunged message or messages are in another mailbox, the
+   server sends an unsolicited STATUS (UIDNEXT MESSAGES) response for
+   the relevant mailbox.  If the QRESYNC [RFC5162] extension is enabled,
+   the HIGHESTMODSEQ data item MUST be included in the STATUS response
+   as well.
+
+   Note that if a client requests MessageExpunge with the SELECTED
+   mailbox specifier, the meaning of an MSN can change at any time, so
+   the client cannot use MSNs in commands anymore.  For example, such a
+   client cannot use FETCH, but has to use UID FETCH.  The meaning of
+   '*' can also change when messages are added or expunged.  A client
+   wishing to keep using MSNs can either use the SELECTED-DELAYED
+   mailbox specifier or can avoid using the MessageExpunge event
+   entirely.
+
+   The MessageExpunge notification covers both MessageExpunge and
+   MessageExpire events from [RFC5423].
+
+   Example in the selected mailbox, without QRESYNC:
+      S: * 444 EXPUNGE
+
+   The same example in the selected mailbox, with QRESYNC:
+      S: * VANISHED 5444
+
+   And in another mailbox, when QRESYNC is not enabled:
+      S: * STATUS misc (UIDNEXT 999 MESSAGES 554)
+
+5.4.  MailboxName
+
+   These notifications are sent if an affected mailbox name was created
+   (with CREATE), deleted (with DELETE), or renamed (with RENAME).  For
+   a server that implements [RFC4314], granting or revocation of the 'l'
+   right to the current user on the affected mailbox MUST be considered
+   mailbox creation or deletion, respectively.  If a mailbox is created
+   or deleted, the mailbox itself and its direct parent (whether it is
+   an existing mailbox or not) are considered to be affected.

+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+   The server notifies the client by sending an unsolicited LIST
+   response for each affected mailbox name.  If, after the event, the
+   mailbox name does not refer to a mailbox accessible to the client,
+   the \Nonexistent flag MUST be included.
+
+   For each LISTable mailbox renamed, the server sends an extended LIST
+   response [RFC5258] for the new mailbox name, containing the OLDNAME
+   extended data item with the old mailbox name.  When a mailbox is
+   renamed, its children are renamed too.  No additional MailboxName
+   events are sent for children in this case.  When INBOX is renamed, a
+   new INBOX is assumed to be created.  No MailboxName event is sent for
+   INBOX in this case.
+
+   If the server automatically subscribes a mailbox when it is created
+   or renamed, then the unsolicited LIST response for each affected
+   subscribed mailbox name MUST include the \Subscribed attribute (see
+   [RFC5258]).  The server SHOULD also include \HasChildren or
+   \HasNoChildren attributes [RFC5258] as appropriate.
+
+   Example of a newly created mailbox (or granting of the 'l' right on
+   the mailbox):
+      S: * LIST () "/" "NewMailbox"
+
+   And a deleted mailbox (or revocation of the 'l' right on the
+   mailbox):
+      S: * LIST (\NonExistent) "." "INBOX.DeletedMailbox"
+
+   Example of a renamed mailbox:
+      S: * LIST () "/" "NewMailbox" ("OLDNAME" ("OldMailbox"))
+
+5.5.  SubscriptionChange
+
+   The server notifies the client by sending an unsolicited LIST
+   response for each affected mailbox name.  If and only if the mailbox
+   is subscribed after the event, the \Subscribed attribute (see
+   [RFC5258]) is included.  Note that in the LIST response, all mailbox
+   attributes MUST be accurately computed (this differs from the
+   behavior of the LSUB command).
+
+   Example:
+      S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" "SubscribedMailbox"
+
+5.6.  MailboxMetadataChange
+
+   Support for this event type is OPTIONAL unless the METADATA extension
+   [RFC5464] is also supported by the server, in which case support for
+   this event type is REQUIRED.

+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+   A client willing to receive unsolicited METADATA responses as a
+   result of using the MailboxMetadataChange event in the NOTIFY command
+   doesn't have to issue ENABLE METADATA.
+
+   The server sends an unsolicited METADATA response (as per Section
+   4.4.2 of [RFC5464]).  If possible, only the changed metadata SHOULD
+   be included, but if the server can't detect a change to a single
+   metadata item, it MAY include all metadata items set on the mailbox.
+   If a metadata item is deleted (set to NIL), it MUST always be
+   included in the METADATA response.
+
+   Example:
+      S: * METADATA "INBOX" /shared/comment
+
+5.7.  ServerMetadataChange
+
+   Support for this event type is OPTIONAL unless the METADATA or the
+   METADATA-SERVER extension [RFC5464] is also supported by the server,
+   in which case support for this event type is REQUIRED.
+
+   A client willing to receive unsolicited METADATA responses as a
+   result of using the ServerMetadataChange event in the NOTIFY command
+   doesn't have to issue ENABLE METADATA or ENABLE METADATA-SERVER.
+
+   The server sends an unsolicited METADATA response (as per Section
+   4.4.2 of [RFC5464]).  Only the names of changed metadata entries
+   SHOULD be returned in such METADATA responses.  If a metadata item is
+   deleted (set to NIL), it MUST always be included in the METADATA
+   response.
+
+   Example:
+      S: * METADATA "" /shared/comment
+
+5.8.  Notification Overflow
+
+   If the server is unable or unwilling to deliver as many notifications
+   as it is being asked to, it may disable notifications for some or all
+   clients.  It MUST notify these clients by sending an untagged "OK
+   [NOTIFICATIONOVERFLOW]" response and behave as if a NOTIFY NONE
+   command had just been received.
+
+   Example:
+      S: * OK [NOTIFICATIONOVERFLOW] ...A comment can go here...

+
+
+5.9.  ACL (Access Control List) Changes
+
+   Even if NOTIFY succeeds, it is still possible to lose access to the
+   mailboxes being monitored at a later time.  If this happens, the
+   server MUST stop monitoring these mailboxes.  If access is later
+   granted, the server MUST restart event monitoring.
+
+   The server SHOULD return the LIST response with the \NoAccess name
+   attribute if and when the mailbox loses the 'l' right.  Similarly,
+   the server SHOULD return the LIST response with no \NoAccess name
+   attribute if the mailbox was previously reported as having \NoAccess
+   and the 'l' right is later granted.
+
+6.  Mailbox Specification
+
+   Mailboxes to be monitored can be specified in several different ways.
+
+   Only 'SELECTED' and 'SELECTED-DELAYED' (Section 6.1) match the
+   currently selected mailbox.  All other mailbox specifications affect
+   other (non-selected) mailboxes.
+
+   Note that multiple <event-group>s can apply to the same mailbox.  The
+   following example demonstrates this.  In this example, MessageNew and
+   MessageExpunge events are reported for INBOX, due to the first
+   <event-group>.  A SubscriptionChange event will also be reported for
+   INBOX, due to the second <event-group>.
+
+      C: a notify set (mailboxes INBOX (Messagenew messageExpunge))
+         (personal (SubscriptionChange))
+
+   A typical client that supports the NOTIFY extension would ask for
+   events on the selected mailbox and some named mailboxes.
+
+   In the next example, the client asks for FlagChange events for all
+   personal mailboxes except the currently selected mailbox.  This is
+   different from the previous example because SELECTED overrides all
+   other message event definitions for the currently selected mailbox
+   (see Section 3.1).
+
+      C: a notify set (selected (Messagenew (uid flags) messageExpunge))
+         (personal (MessageNew FlagChange MessageExpunge))
+
+6.1.  Mailbox Specifiers Affecting the Currently Selected Mailbox
+
+   Only one of the mailbox specifiers affecting the currently selected
+   mailbox can be specified in any NOTIFY command.  The two such mailbox
+   specifiers (SELECTED and SELECTED-DELAYED) are described below.
+
+
+
+
+Gulbrandsen, et al.         Standards Track                    [Page 14]
+
+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+   Both refer to the mailbox that was selected using either SELECT or
+   EXAMINE (see [RFC3501], Sections 6.3.1 and 6.3.2).  When the IMAP
+   connection is not in the selected state, such mailbox specifiers
+   don't refer to any mailbox.
+
+   The mailbox specifiers only apply to <message-event>s.  It is an
+   error to specify other types of events with either the SELECTED or
+   the SELECTED-DELAYED selector.
+
+6.1.1.  Selected
+
+   The SELECTED mailbox specifier requires the server to send immediate
+   notifications for the currently selected mailbox about all specified
+   <message-event>s.
+
+6.1.2.  Selected-Delayed
+
+   The SELECTED-DELAYED mailbox specifier requires the server to delay a
+   MessageExpunge event until the client issues a command that allows
+   returning information about expunged messages (see Section 7.4.1 of
+   [RFC3501] for more details), for example, till a NOOP or an IDLE
+   command has been issued.  When SELECTED-DELAYED is specified, the
+   server MAY also delay returning other <message-event>s until the
+   client issues one of the commands specified above, or it MAY return
+   them immediately.
+
+6.2.  Personal
+
+   Personal refers to all selectable mailboxes in the user's personal
+   namespace(s), as defined in [RFC2342].
+
+6.3.  Inboxes
+
+   Inboxes refers to all selectable mailboxes in the user's personal
+   namespace(s) to which messages may be delivered by a Message Delivery
+   Agent (MDA) (see [EMAIL-ARCH], particularly Section 4.3.3).
+
+   If the IMAP server cannot easily compute this set, it MUST treat
+   "inboxes" as equivalent to "personal".
+
+6.4.  Subscribed
+
+   Subscribed refers to all mailboxes subscribed to by the user.
+
+   If the subscription list changes, the server MUST reevaluate the
+   list.
+
+
+
+
+
+Gulbrandsen, et al.         Standards Track                    [Page 15]
+
+RFC 5465                 IMAP NOTIFY Extension             February 2009
+
+
+6.5.  Subtree
+
+   Subtree is followed by a mailbox name or list of mailbox names.  A
+   subtree refers to all selectable mailboxes that are subordinate to
+   the specified mailbox plus the specified mailbox itself.
+
+6.6.  Mailboxes
+
+   Mailboxes is followed by a mailbox name or a list of mailbox names.
+   The server MUST NOT do a wildcard expansion.  This means there is no
+   special treatment for the LIST wildcard characters ('*' and '%') if
+   they are present in mailbox names.
+
+7.  Extension to SEARCH and SORT Commands
+
+   If the server that supports the NOTIFY extension also supports
+   CONTEXT=SEARCH and/or CONTEXT=SORT as defined in [RFC5267], the
+   UPDATE return option is extended so that a client can request that
+   FETCH attributes be returned when a new message is added to the
+   context result set.
+
+   For example:
+
+         C: a00 SEARCH RETURN (COUNT UPDATE (UID BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (TO
+            FROM SUBJECT)])) FROM "boss"
+         S: * ESEARCH (TAG "a00") (COUNT 17)
+         S: a00 OK
+            [...a new message is delivered...]
+         S: * EXISTS 93
+         S: * 93 FETCH (UID 127001 BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (FROM TO SUBJECT)]
+            {76}
+         S: Subject: Re: good morning
+         S: From: myboss@example.org
+         S: To: bob@example.org
+         S:
+         S: )
+         S: * ESEARCH (TAG "a00") ADDTO (0 93)
+
+   Note that the EXISTS response MUST precede any FETCH responses, and
+   together they MUST precede the ESEARCH response.
+
+   No untagged FETCH response SHOULD be returned if a message becomes a
+   member of UPDATE SEARCH due to flag or annotation changes.

+8.  Formal Syntax
+
+   The following syntax specification uses the Augmented Backus-Naur
+   Form (ABNF) notation as specified in [RFC5234].  [RFC3501] defines
+   the non-terminals "capability", "command-auth", "mailbox", "mailbox-
+   data", "resp-text-code", and "search-key".  The "modifier-update"
+   non-terminal is defined in [RFC5267].  "mbx-list-oflag" is defined in
+   [RFC3501] and updated by [RFC5258].
+
+   Except as noted otherwise, all alphabetic characters are case-
+   insensitive.  The use of upper or lower case characters to define
+   token strings is for editorial clarity only.  Implementations MUST
+   accept these strings in a case-insensitive fashion.  For example, the
+   <filter-mailboxes-selected> non-terminal value "SELECTED" must be
+   treated in the same way as "Selected" or "selected".

+9.  Security Considerations
+
+   It is very easy for a client to deny itself service using NOTIFY.
+   Asking for all events on all mailboxes may work on a small server,
+   but with a big server, can swamp the client's network connection or
+   processing capability.  In the worst case, the server's processing
+   could also degrade the service it offers to other clients.
+
+   Server authors should be aware that if a client issues requests and
+   does not listen to the resulting responses, the TCP window can easily
+   fill up, and a careless server might block.  This problem also exists
+   in plain IMAP; however, this extension magnifies the problem.
+
+   This extension makes it possible to retrieve messages immediately
+   when they are added to the mailbox.  This makes it wholly impractical
+   to delete sensitive messages using programs like imapfilter.  Using
