Sieve Email Filtering: delivery by mailboxid
draft-ietf-extra-sieve-mailboxid-06
Abstract
The OBJECTID capability of the IMAP protocol (RFC8474) allows clients
to identify mailboxes by a unique identifier which survives rename.
This document extends the Sieve mail filtering language (RFC5228) to
allow using that same unique identifier as a target for fileinto
rules, and for testing the existance of mailboxes.

1. Introduction
[RFC5228] Sieve rules are sometimes created using graphical
interfaces which allow users to select the mailbox to be used as a
target for a rule.

Internet-Draft Sieve MAILBOXID December 2020
If that mailbox is renamed, the client may also update its internal
representation of the rule and update the sieve script to match,
however this is a multi-step process and subject to partial failures.
Also, if the folder is renamed by a different mechanism (e.g. another
IMAP client) the rules will get out of sync.
