Summor of Code Project: james-imap

[Jan-Hendrik Kuperus <kr...@shirmanos.student.utwente.nl>]

Hello,

recently I've expressed my interest in taking on this project for the 
Summer of Code, via the Google Application Form. I'm not sure if I'm 
supposed to wait for a reply from your side or not, but I was anxious to 
get to know more about the project.

So, let me start out by trying to explain why I am interested in this 
particular project. I'm a fifth year University Student in Computer 
Science at the University of Twente (Netherlands). I have a broad 
experience with Java, as I've done several projects for courses and I am 
also teaching first-year students how to program in Java.
Among the projects I have done myself and those I have mentored are 
several Client-Server applications. Therefor I think I would be capable 
of implementing IMAP in the James Server.

I've gathered some information about the project already: I've read 
through the developers-wiki of James, I've downloaded the source and 
started browsing it and I've download and read into a few RFCs 
concerning the IMAP protocol.

As you can see, I'm anxious to get started on discussing the project and 
ofcourse implementing it. I hope to hear from you soon.

Best regards,

Jan-Hendrik Kuperus

Great.  :-)

We haven't yet heard from Google about what applications were submitted, so
we're all waiting.  :-)

And I see that Manish Rai Jain also has some very specific questions about
IMAP.  Hopefully, Jason will chime in with some details soon.  Most of us
haven't been working in the IMAP code, and we'll all probably learn more
over the course of the summer developments.
