Technical Summary

The Internet Message Access Protocol, Version 4rev1 (IMAP4rev1) allows 
a client to access and manipulate electronic mail messages on a server. 
IMAP4rev1 permits manipulation of mailboxes (remote message folders) in 
a way that is functionally equivalent to local folders. IMAP4rev1 also 
provides the capability for an offline client to resynchronize with the 
server.

This document is a revision of RFC 2060. Appendix B of this document 
describes revisions and changes.
