Hi Naren,

Based on the AD review [1] and the short discussion about that 
sentence in Section 2, my opinion is that the intent of the what is 
written in the draft is not clear.  What are the implications of (a) 
and (b)?  What if the IMAP server advertises that there is a limit 
which applies to all mailboxes before the user has logged in?
