Authors,

While reviewing this document during AUTH48, please resolve (as necessary) the 
following questions, which are also in the XML file.

1) <!-- [rfced] Please insert any keywords (beyond those that appear in
the title) for use on https://www.rfc-editor.org/search. -->


2) <!--[rfced] The acknowledgments mentions the editor of this document;
however, none of the authors has been listed as the editor (meaning
"Ed." would appear after their name). Should one person (or more) be 
listed as the editor(s) of this document? 
(If not, this sentence will be changed to "The authors of this 
document".)

Original:
   Editor of this document would like to thank the following ...
-->


3) <!--[rfced] Abstract: Does the updated text convey the intended
meaning? The idea is to not rely on "/" for meaning and to clarify how
the first set of commands (FETCH, SEARCH, STORE, COPY, MOVE) relates 
to the second set (APPEND, UID EXPUNGE).

Original:
   The MESSAGELIMIT extension of the Internet Message Access Protocol
   (RFC 3501/RFC 9051) allows servers to announce a limit on the number
   of messages that can be processed in a single
   FETCH/SEARCH/STORE/COPY/MOVE (or their UID variants), APPEND or UID
   EXPUNGE command.

Current:
   The MESSAGELIMIT extension of the Internet Message Access Protocol
   (RFC 3501/RFC 9051) allows servers to announce a limit on the number
   of messages that can be processed in a single FETCH, SEARCH, STORE,
   COPY, or MOVE command (or their UID variants), or in a single APPEND
   or UID EXPUNGE command.

[And similarly in the Introduction]
-->


4) <!-- [rfced] May the first sentences of the Abstract and 
Introduction be updated to simply point to RFC 9051 rather than 
RFC 3501, as RFC 9501 is the current version of IMAP? 

Because there is already an explicit statement in Section 1
that the extension is compatible with "both IMAP4rev1 [RFC3501] 
and IMAP4rev2 [RFC9051]", please consider whether in other
instances throughout the document the reference to RFC 3501 
may be updated to RFC 9051.

Abstract

Original:
   The MESSAGELIMIT extension of the Internet Message Access Protocol
   (RFC 3501/RFC 9051) allows ...

Perhaps:
   The MESSAGELIMIT extension of the Internet Message Access Protocol
   (RFC 9051) allows ...


Introduction

Original:
   This document defines an extension to the Internet Message Access
   Protocol [RFC3501] for announcing ...

Perhaps:
   This document defines an extension to the Internet Message Access
   Protocol [RFC9051] for announcing ...
-->


5) <!--[rfced] Section 3.1: May this text be updated as follows?
Should "EXPUNGE" be "UID EXPUNGE" here? 

Original:
3.1.  Returning limits on the number of messages processed in a single
      SEARCH/FETCH/STORE/COPY/MOVE/APPEND/EXPUNGE command

Perhaps Option A: 
3.1.  Returning Limits on the Number of Messages Processed in a Single
      Command (SEARCH, FETCH, STORE, COPY, MOVE, APPEND, EXPUNGE)

or Option B (to simplify):
3.1.  Returning Limits on the Number of Messages Processed in a Single
      Command 
-->


6) <!--[rfced] FYI, line breaks have been added in order to fit the 
line-width restrictions of the text output. Please let us know if
changes are needed.
-->


7) <!--[rfced] This document mentions the "message set parameter" twice.
Will this be clear to the reader? We do not see mention of this term
in RFC 9051 or other RFCs.

Current:
(For the MOVE command, the message set parameter needs to be ...
[...]
(For the STORE command, the message set parameter also needs to be ...
-->


8) <!--[rfced] The first item uses notation; the second uses words.
May this be updated as follows for consistency?

Original:
      Operations on a mailbox that has <= N messages are not affected.

      In a mailbox with more than N messages:

Suggested:
   *  Operations are not affected on a mailbox that has N messages 
      or fewer.

   *  In a mailbox with more than N messages:

Or (if you prefer notation):
   *  Operations on a mailbox that has <= N messages are not affected.

   *  In a mailbox with > N messages:
-->


9) <!-- [rfced] Please review each artwork element and let us know if any should
be marked as sourcecode (or another element) instead.

FYI, we updated artwork to sourcecode type="abnf" in Section 5. Please confirm
that this is accurate.

The current list of preferred values for "type" is available at
<https://www.rfc-editor.org/rpc/wiki/doku.php?id=sourcecode-types>.
If the current list does not contain an applicable type, feel free to
suggest additions for consideration. Note that it is also acceptable
to leave the "type" attribute not set.
-->


10) <!-- [rfced] Please review the "Inclusive Language" portion of the online 
Style Guide <https://www.rfc-editor.org/styleguide/part2/#inclusive_language>
and let us know if any changes are needed.  Updates of this nature typically
result in more precise language, which is helpful for readers.

Note that our script did not flag any words in particular, but this should 
still be reviewed as a best practice.
-->


11) <!--[rfced] FYI, we have removed the index from this document,
as an index with a single entry does not seem useful.
-->

Thank you.

Instructions for Completing AUTH48

Your document has now entered AUTH48.  Once it has been reviewed and 
approved by you and all coauthors, it will be published as an RFC.  
If an author is no longer available, there are several remedies 
available as listed in the FAQ (https://www.rfc-editor.org/faq/).

You and you coauthors are responsible for engaging other parties 
(e.g., Contributors or Working Group) as necessary before providing 
your approval.

Planning your review 
---------------------

Please review the following aspects of your document:

*  RFC Editor questions

  Please review and resolve any questions raised by the RFC Editor 
  that have been included in the XML file as comments marked as 
  follows:

  <!-- [rfced] ... -->

  These questions will also be sent in a subsequent email.

*  Changes submitted by coauthors 

  Please ensure that you review any changes submitted by your 
  coauthors.  We assume that if you do not speak up that you 
  agree to changes submitted by your coauthors.

*  Content 

  Please review the full content of the document, as this cannot 
  change once the RFC is published.  Please pay particular attention to:
  - IANA considerations updates (if applicable)
  - contact information
  - references

*  Copyright notices and legends

  Please review the copyright notice and legends as defined in
  RFC 5378 and the Trust Legal Provisions 
  (TLP – https://trustee.ietf.org/license-info).

*  Semantic markup

  Please review the markup in the XML file to ensure that elements of  
  content are correctly tagged.  For example, ensure that <sourcecode> 
  and <artwork> are set correctly.  See details at 
  <https://authors.ietf.org/rfcxml-vocabulary>.

*  Formatted output

  Please review the PDF, HTML, and TXT files to ensure that the 
  formatted output, as generated from the markup in the XML file, is 
  reasonable.  Please note that the TXT will have formatting 
  limitations compared to the PDF and HTML.


Submitting changes
------------------

To submit changes, please reply to this email using ‘REPLY ALL’ as all 
the parties CCed on this message need to see your changes. The parties 
include:

  *  your coauthors

  *  rfc-edi...@rfc-editor.org (the RPC team)

  *  other document participants, depending on the stream (e.g., 
     IETF Stream participants are your working group chairs, the 
     responsible ADs, and the document shepherd).

  *  auth48archive@rfc-editor.org, which is a new archival mailing list 
     to preserve AUTH48 conversations; it is not an active discussion 
     list:

    *  More info:
       
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-announce/yb6lpIGh-4Q9l2USxIAe6P8O4Zc

    *  The archive itself:
       https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/auth48archive/

    *  Note: If only absolutely necessary, you may temporarily opt out 
       of the archiving of messages (e.g., to discuss a sensitive matter).
       If needed, please add a note at the top of the message that you 
       have dropped the address. When the discussion is concluded, 
       auth48archive@rfc-editor.org will be re-added to the CC list and 
       its addition will be noted at the top of the message. 

You may submit your changes in one of two ways:

An update to the provided XML file
— OR —
An explicit list of changes in this format

Section # (or indicate Global)

OLD:
old text

NEW:
new text

You do not need to reply with both an updated XML file and an explicit 
list of changes, as either form is sufficient.

We will ask a stream manager to review and approve any changes that seem
beyond editorial in nature, e.g., addition of new text, deletion of text, 
and technical changes.  Information about stream managers can be found in 
the FAQ.  Editorial changes do not require approval from a stream manager.


Approving for publication
--------------------------

To approve your RFC for publication, please reply to this email stating
that you approve this RFC for publication.  Please use ‘REPLY ALL’,
as all the parties CCed on this message need to see your approval.
