MAPI and IMAP are related only through handling email. They are not
directly comparable and don't share any common history. MAPI is a
do-everything binary API (not even a protocol) - send messages, browse
messages, manage an address book, etc., proprietary to Microsoft and
implemented over DCE/RPC (i.e. LAN-only).

 [Small arms] are fundamentally dangerous and their removal from the

 whereabouts.         -- the UN, who "doesn't want to confiscate guns"
