Description : Asynchronous IMAP4rev1 client library using Python asyncio
Python library that implements the IMAP4rev1 protocol with an asynchronous
model using asyncio. This package allows users to handle IMAP communication in
a non-blocking manner, enhancing the performance of applications by leveraging
the asyncio framework to manage tasks concurrently.
.
Key features include:
- Implementation of the IDLE command (RFC2177) for efficient real-time email
monitoring.
- Threading support with asyncio for safe concurrent operations.
- Enhanced logging capabilities and OAuth2 authentication support for
services like Microsoft Outlook and potentially Google Mail.
.
This library is ideal for developers needing to integrate IMAP support into
applications that benefit from asynchronous programming, providing capabilities
like email fetching, mailbox management, and real-time notifications without
blocking the application's main thread.
I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python team.
