Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist imapproxy is an IMAP proxy created in order to reduce load to IMAP servers by Webmail programs. Originally part of the Horde project [www.horde.org], for their IMP webmail.
Once a connection arrives, imapproxy forwards it to the real IMAP server and notes it. It will keep the connection alive for an specified amount of time even if the client closes it, thus heavily reducing the amount of reconnections to the server. It is designed to be run in the same host the webmail program runs at. Imapproxy can be downloaded from http://www.imapproxy.org ( new, official website ) Regards, J.L.
