Wasn't supposed to come across like that. The sad part is that Google has enough grip on e-mail to halt adoption of any standard; GMail has been around for 16 years, you'd expect some kind of standard to come out of it to support modern e-mail features. Developers not having a choice doesn't make it less wrong. JMAP has been around for 5+ years, and specs published last year by the IETF: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8620 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8620 and https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8621 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8621
