Hm...  I skimmed the first section of the RFC, and it still didn't tell
me what ACLs are.  >"?

Yes, nnimap was rewritten for Emacs 24, and the ACL stuff went AWOL
because 1) I have no idea what it is and 2) nobody seemed to be using
it.  You're the first person to mention it, and it's been gone a year...

The code could be resurrected, of course, but it would have to be by
someone who could test it.  Patches are welcome.
