The short discussion on pop3d not changing \Seen state got me thinking about the overall interaction of pop3d and nntpd with IMAP flags.

It would be fairly straightforward to have an option that updated \Seen state whenever a POP3 client issues a RETR command or an NNTP client issues a BODY or ARTICLE command.

My question is what do people think of the interaction between pop3d/nntpd and the \Deleted flag? Should these daemons ignore articles that have this flag set? Should a POP3 DELE command or a NNTP cancel message just set the \Deleted flag instead of expunging the message?

We should be able to handle all of this via imapd.conf option(s).

Should any setting which enables pop3d/nntpd to use IMAP flags be global or per-mailbox?

Both, with current operation being default. Per mbox option takes precedence. How are you going to enable per-mbox flags, via annotate?

Yes, it would be a mailbox annotation.
