Per Abrahamsen said this was part of future IMAP support. Is work on this already being done? Is there an interface specified for this? What is IMAP? If I knew how this was going to happen, I could work on code to set the "answered" mark correctly for messages which are imported from VM mailboxes and also to support VM's "edited" and "forwarded" marks. I don't want to switch from VM for reading mail until Gnus can automatically generate correct "answered" marks for my VM mailboxes. -- Joe Wells
