Abstract

This document extends the IMAP OBJECTID specification in RFC8474 describes persistent identifiers for Mailboxes, Emails, and Threads in email. Some servers may be unable to provide persistent identifiers for one of these but be able to provide data for others, so this extension allows a server to specify that it can provide some reliable ids without needing to implement all data types.
