This library provides a job-based API for interacting with an IMAP4rev1 server. It manages connections, encryption and parameter quoting and encoding, but otherwise provides quite a low-level interface to the protocol. This library does not implement an IMAP client; it merely makes it easier to do so.

Users should be familiar with *RFC 3501* https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501 *IMAP 4rev1* as well as other related *RFCs* https://www.iana.org/assignments/imap4-capabilities although the library hides some of the nastier details like the encoding and quoting of strings.
