Description Guillaume Castagnino 2004-06-27 18:01:07 UTC

As said on the cyrus doc, the default imap idle method used is poll, which is not a flex method, and quiet old.

So you should add the possibility to activate the idled method, which can be activated with "--with-idle=idled" during the configure (I think either with a use flag or by default, this it's the modern method...)

Thank

I'm marking this bug dup of the newer one since the newer one contains patches.
