{QUOTE(source_url="http://jmap.io/" parse="1")}!! What is JMAP?
JMAP is intended to be a new standard for email clients to connect to mail stores. It therefore intends to primarily replace IMAP + SMTP submission. It is also designed to be more generic such that it can be extended with contacts, calendars in the future (replacing CardDAV/CalDAV). It does not replace MTA-to-MTA SMTP transmission.
!! Why is this needed?
It’s too hard to write a good MUA with current standards, which has led to a stagnation in good email clients and a proliferation of proprietary protocols.{QUOTE}
