Well, have to show off somehow. Real showing off would involve
counting the octets from a cacheless state, where it has to load in
its configuration over the network too.
Although caused by the fact that he uses pipelining he can also
allow
the user to already start working with the messages themselves, and
that
this most likely wont be possible (unless I would start a new
connection
to get the message while retrieval of the summary, in the
background,
takes place) ... I did get incrementally filling up the view
working in
the demo ui of tinymail.
You can also fetch the summary data in smaller chunks, which allows a
faster response time when the user wants to read a message (or
whatever).
I'm expecting all this to start working between now and a month and
demo
-ready around FOSDEM.
The good news is that Dave will be at FOSDEM. And I was hoping to
be the
smartest IMAPper at FOSDEM this year. Damn :)
I won't be either - since Alexey Melnikov is also showing up.
Dave.
