Hi,

I'm working on some fairly specialized modifications to a mail system composed of qmail / courier IMAP. I'm fairly new to email protocols... but it does seem strange to me that IMAP doesn't provide for a "STORE BODY" command. Does anyone know the history of it and why? One example use would be using IMAP for a message board and wanting to let authors edit their postings.

The way this is currently done by deleting the original message, then APPENDing a new message into the same folder.
