Agreed, but after a short mumbling I thought this attempt at least
wouldn't be harmful.

I have the (hopefully wrong) feeling that the bureaucratically correct
path would take decades before a "Spam" button can be enjoyed on
mobile and desktop IMAP devices alike.  A simple and unencumbered IMAP
command can be standardized and implemented rather quickly, and
satisfactorily for all involved parties --except spammers, maybe.

Not only I cannot speak for RIM, but I have never actually seen that
patent application.  I'm looking forward for a RIM's statement that
either confirms or denies that that patent does not apply to a reduced
version like the one I posted.  I'm confident that my post can be
deleted promptly in case RIM gives a negative response.

The IPR is filed here:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1609/

The kleansed version is here:
