Abstract:
Users go to great lengths to be notified as quickly as possible that they
have received new mail. Most of these methods involve polling to check for new
messages periodically. A push method handled by the final delivery agent gives users quicker
notifications and saves server resources. This document does not specify the notification method, but
it is expected that using existing instant messaging infrastructure such as Extensible Messaging and
Presence Protocol (XMPP), or Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) Short Message Service (SMS)
messages will be popular. This document describes an extension to the Sieve mail filtering
language that allows users to give specific rules for how and when notifications should
be sent. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
