Tooling around json has universal tooling, sanely structured, and understood, basically the opposite of anything with IMAP.
Probably any structured data like json would be fine, it's basically bikeshedding to argue about json when the real driver behind JMAP is the previous state of email's crustiness
- egberts1 4y agoAnd crustiness of legacy SMTP is very prevalent, notably the RFC 822 common mixed-text content (Text/HTML). Maybe the old foggity in me is yearning for the good ol’ Text-only SMTP days that were spam-free. Excuse the pessimism here but we are still perpetuating the weakness of SMTP-related backends, notably HTML inclusion into RFC 822, no? I see increasing prevalence of link tracking of emails by those who commercialized IMAP … and now JMAP. However, I hope to see more private mail servers but that future of privacy remains cloudy.
- wtetzner 4y agoIsn't link tracking orthogonal to IMAP? If you don't follow the links/load remote images/etc. on the client, then tracking doesn't occur. Unless I'm missing something?
