Thanks :)

Have a suggestion below  . . .

Cool.

Devdas, I really appreciate the work you got going on here.  It'll be of
great use when done, and so, I'd like to help speed things along in any way
possible.  I might hack something together and see if you like it.

A couple things I would like to see:

o A config switch for imapd.conf.
o A way to interact with HIERSEP code base so that the rewrite of '.' to '='
is conditional on whether or not '.' are allowed.
o A remap in lmtp for '@'.

I know you're pressed for time, but I'd love to see the full-fledged
solution you have in mind.  Like I said, I'd be glad to offer any help where
appropriate, and hope to port your patches to HIERSEP sometime soon.
