I would highly appreciate if you at Dovecot could increase the
priority of ANNOTATE in your roadmap.
ANNOTATE is
something that I'd like to implement at some point, but it's also
quite a large change and likely will have to wait until Dovecot v2.3.
Ideally, and of course, I speak from my personal point of view,
annotations should be something, that SOLR would index according to its
own mapping, which I am in control of.
Use case: incoming mails here are not directly answered in the MUA, but
some third party software creates outgoing emails, with a formal yet
unique subject; inbound messages could then be /tagged/ with the same
identifier and a single search would yield the complete correspondence…
Basically, adding a header to a message would do my job as well, but
seems to contradict with what IMAP seems to be about: preserving
messages unadulterated, which is a noble goal indeed.
OTOH, no hurry, client support of ANNOTATE is not there yet either (at
least in Thunderbird).
