|
yuuji@0
|
31 This document extends IMAP (RFC 3501) SEARCH and UID SEARCH commands
|
yuuji@0
|
32 with several result options, which can control what kind of
|
yuuji@0
|
33 information is returned. The following result options are defined:
|
yuuji@0
|
34 minimal value, maximal value, all found messages, and number of found
|
yuuji@0
|
35 messages.

63 1. Introduction
|
yuuji@0
|
64
|
yuuji@0
|
65 [IMAPABNF] extended SEARCH and UID SEARCH commands with result
|
yuuji@0
|
66 specifiers (also known as result options), which can control what
|
yuuji@0
|
67 kind of information is returned.
|
yuuji@0
|
68
|
yuuji@0
|
69 A server advertising the ESEARCH capability supports the following
|
yuuji@0
|
70 result options: minimal value, maximal value, all found messages,
|
yuuji@0
|
71 and number of found messages. These result options allow clients to
|
yuuji@0
|
72 get SEARCH results in more convenient forms, while also saving
|
yuuji@0
|
73 bandwidth required to transport the results, for example, by finding
|
yuuji@0
|
74 the first unseen message or returning the number of unseen or deleted
|
yuuji@0
|
75 messages. Also, when a single MIN or a single MAX result option is
|
yuuji@0
|
76 specified, servers can optimize execution of SEARCHes.
|
yuuji@0
|
77
|
yuuji@0
|
78 2. Conventions Used in This Document
|
yuuji@0
|
79
|
yuuji@0
|
80 In examples, "C:" and "S:" indicate lines sent by the client and
|
yuuji@0
|
81 server, respectively.
|
yuuji@0
|
82
|
yuuji@0
|
83 The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
|
yuuji@0
|
84 "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
|
yuuji@0
|
85 document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [KEYWORDS].

87 3. IMAP Protocol Changes
|
yuuji@0
|
88
|
yuuji@0
|
89 3.1. New SEARCH/UID SEARCH Result Options
|
yuuji@0
|
90
|
yuuji@0
|
91 The SEARCH/UID SEARCH commands are extended to allow for the
|
yuuji@0
|
92 following result options:
|
yuuji@0
|
93
|
yuuji@0
|
94 MIN
|
yuuji@0
|
95 Return the lowest message number/UID that satisfies the SEARCH
|
yuuji@0
|
96 criteria.
|
yuuji@0
|
97
|
yuuji@0
|
98 If the SEARCH results in no matches, the server MUST NOT
|
yuuji@0
|
99 include the MIN result option in the ESEARCH response; however,
|
yuuji@0
|
100 it still MUST send the ESEARCH response.
|
yuuji@0
|
101
|
yuuji@0
|
102 MAX
|
yuuji@0
|
103 Return the highest message number/UID that satisfies the SEARCH
|
yuuji@0
|
104 criteria.
|
yuuji@0
|
105
|
yuuji@0
|
106 If the SEARCH results in no matches, the server MUST NOT
|
yuuji@0
|
107 include the MAX result option in the ESEARCH response; however,
|
yuuji@0
|
108 it still MUST send the ESEARCH response.
|

116 RFC 4731 IMAP4 Extension to SEARCH November 2006
|
yuuji@0
|
117
|
yuuji@0
|
118
|
yuuji@0
|
119 ALL
|
yuuji@0
|
120 Return all message numbers/UIDs that satisfy the SEARCH
|
yuuji@0
|
121 criteria. Unlike regular (unextended) SEARCH, the messages are
|
yuuji@0
|
122 always returned using the sequence-set syntax. A sequence-set
|
yuuji@0
|
123 representation may be more compact and can be used as is in a
|
yuuji@0
|
124 subsequent command that accepts sequence-set. Note, the client
|
yuuji@0
|
125 MUST NOT assume that messages/UIDs will be listed in any
|
yuuji@0
|
126 particular order.
|
yuuji@0
|
127
|
yuuji@0
|
128 If the SEARCH results in no matches, the server MUST NOT
|
yuuji@0
|
129 include the ALL result option in the ESEARCH response; however,
|
yuuji@0
|
130 it still MUST send the ESEARCH response.
|
yuuji@0
|
131
|
yuuji@0
|
132 COUNT
|
yuuji@0
|
133 Return number of the messages that satisfy the SEARCH criteria.
|
yuuji@0
|
134 This result option MUST always be included in the ESEARCH
|
yuuji@0
|
135 response.
|
yuuji@0
|
136
|
yuuji@0
|
137 If one or more result options described above are specified, the
|
yuuji@0
|
138 extended SEARCH command MUST return a single ESEARCH response
|
yuuji@0
|
139 [IMAPABNF], instead of the SEARCH response.
|
yuuji@0
|
140
|
yuuji@0
|
141 An extended UID SEARCH command MUST cause an ESEARCH response with
|
yuuji@0
|
142 the UID indicator present.
|
yuuji@0
|
143
|
yuuji@0
|
144 Note that future extensions to this document can allow servers to
|
yuuji@0
|
145 return multiple ESEARCH responses for a single extended SEARCH
|
yuuji@0
|
146 command. These extensions will have to describe how results from
|
yuuji@0
|
147 multiple ESEARCH responses are to be amalgamated.
|
yuuji@0
|
148
|
yuuji@0
|
149 If the list of result options is empty, that requests the server to
|
yuuji@0
|
150 return an ESEARCH response instead of the SEARCH response. This is
|
yuuji@0
|
151 equivalent to "(ALL)".
|
yuuji@0
|
152
|
yuuji@0
|
153 Example: C: A282 SEARCH RETURN (MIN COUNT) FLAGGED
|
yuuji@0
|
154 SINCE 1-Feb-1994 NOT FROM "Smith"
|
yuuji@0
|
155 S: * ESEARCH (TAG "A282") MIN 2 COUNT 3
|
yuuji@0
|
156 S: A282 OK SEARCH completed
|
yuuji@0
|
157
|
yuuji@0
|
158 Example: C: A283 SEARCH RETURN () FLAGGED
|
yuuji@0
|
159 SINCE 1-Feb-1994 NOT FROM "Smith"
|
yuuji@0
|
160 S: * ESEARCH (TAG "A283") ALL 2,10:11
|
yuuji@0
|
161 S: A283 OK SEARCH completed
|
yuuji@0
|
162
|
yuuji@0
|
163 The following example demonstrates finding the first unseen message
|
yuuji@0
|
164 as returned in the UNSEEN response code on a successful SELECT
|
yuuji@0
|
165 command:
|
yuuji@0

|
175 Example: C: A284 SEARCH RETURN (MIN) UNSEEN
|
yuuji@0
|
176 S: * ESEARCH (TAG "A284") MIN 4
|
yuuji@0
|
177 S: A284 OK SEARCH completed
|
yuuji@0
|
178
|
yuuji@0
|
179 The following example demonstrates that if the ESEARCH UID indicator
|
yuuji@0
|
180 is present, all data in the ESEARCH response is referring to UIDs;
|
yuuji@0
|
181 for example, the MIN result specifier will be followed by a UID.
|
yuuji@0
|
182
|
yuuji@0
|
183 Example: C: A285 UID SEARCH RETURN (MIN MAX) 1:5000
|
yuuji@0
|
184 S: * ESEARCH (TAG "A285") UID MIN 7 MAX 3800
|
yuuji@0
|
185 S: A285 OK SEARCH completed
|
yuuji@0
|
186
|
yuuji@0
|
187 The following example demonstrates returning the number of deleted
|
yuuji@0
|
188 messages:
|
yuuji@0
|
189
|
yuuji@0
|
190 Example: C: A286 SEARCH RETURN (COUNT) DELETED
|
yuuji@0
|
191 S: * ESEARCH (TAG "A286") COUNT 15
|
yuuji@0
|
192 S: A286 OK SEARCH completed
|
yuuji@0
|
193
|
yuuji@0
|
194 3.2. Interaction with CONDSTORE extension
|
yuuji@0
|
195
|
yuuji@0
|
196 When the server supports both the ESEARCH and the CONDSTORE
|
yuuji@0
|
197 [CONDSTORE] extension, and the client requests one or more result
|
yuuji@0
|
198 option described in section 3.1 together with the MODSEQ search
|
yuuji@0
|
199 criterion in the same SEARCH/UID SEARCH command, then the server MUST
|
yuuji@0
|
200 return the ESEARCH response containing the MODSEQ result option
|
yuuji@0
|
201 (described in the following paragraph) instead of the extended SEARCH
|
yuuji@0
|
202 response described in section 3.5 of [CONDSTORE].
|
yuuji@0
|
203
|
yuuji@0
|
204 If the SEARCH/UID SEARCH command contained a single MIN or MAX result
|
yuuji@0
|
205 option, the MODSEQ result option contains the mod-sequence for the
|
yuuji@0
|
206 found message. If the SEARCH/UID SEARCH command contained both MIN
|
yuuji@0
|
207 and MAX result options and no ALL/COUNT option, the MODSEQ result
|
yuuji@0
|
208 option contains the highest mod-sequence for the two returned
|
yuuji@0
|
209 messages. Otherwise the MODSEQ result option contains the highest
|
yuuji@0
|
210 mod-sequence for all messages being returned.
|
yuuji@0
|
211
|
yuuji@0
|
212 Example: The following example demonstrates how Example 15 from
|
yuuji@0
|
213 [CONDSTORE] would look in the presence of one or more result option:
|
yuuji@0
|
214
|
yuuji@0
|
215 C: a1 SEARCH RETURN (MIN) MODSEQ "/flags/\\draft"
|
yuuji@0
|
216 all 620162338
|
yuuji@0
|
217 S: * ESEARCH (TAG "a1") MIN 2 MODSEQ 917162488
|
yuuji@0
|
218 S: a1 OK Search complete
|
yuuji@0
|
219
|
yuuji@0
|
220 C: a2 SEARCH RETURN (MAX) MODSEQ "/flags/\\draft"
|
yuuji@0
|
221 all 620162338
|
yuuji@0
|
222 S: * ESEARCH (TAG "a2") MAX 23 MODSEQ 907162321

yuuji@0
|
243 4. Formal Syntax
|
yuuji@0
|
244
|
yuuji@0
|
245 The following syntax specification uses the Augmented Backus-Naur
|
yuuji@0
|
246 Form (ABNF) notation as specified in [ABNF].
|
yuuji@0
|
247
|
yuuji@0
|
248 Non-terminals referenced but not defined below are as defined by
|
yuuji@0
|
249 [IMAP4], [CONDSTORE], or [IMAPABNF].
|
yuuji@0
|
250
|
yuuji@0
|
251 Except as noted otherwise, all alphabetic characters are case-
|
yuuji@0
|
252 insensitive. The use of upper or lowercase characters to define
|
yuuji@0
|
253 token strings is for editorial clarity only. Implementations MUST
|
yuuji@0
|
254 accept these strings in a case-insensitive fashion.
|
yuuji@0
|
255
|
yuuji@0
|
256 capability =/ "ESEARCH"
|
yuuji@0
|
257
|
yuuji@0
|
258 search-return-data = "MIN" SP nz-number /
|
yuuji@0
|
259 "MAX" SP nz-number /
|
yuuji@0
|
260 "ALL" SP sequence-set /
|
yuuji@0
|
261 "COUNT" SP number
|
yuuji@0
|
262 ;; conforms to the generic
|
yuuji@0
|
263 ;; search-return-data syntax defined
|
yuuji@0
|
264 ;; in [IMAPABNF]
|
yuuji@0
|
265
|
yuuji@0
|
266 search-return-opt = "MIN" / "MAX" / "ALL" / "COUNT"
|
yuuji@0
|
267 ;; conforms to generic search-return-opt
|
yuuji@0
|
268 ;; syntax defined in [IMAPABNF]
|
yuuji@0
|
269
|
yuuji@0
|
270 When the CONDSTORE [CONDSTORE] IMAP extension is also supported,
|
yuuji@0
|
271 the ABNF is updated as follows:
|
yuuji@0
|
272
|
yuuji@0
|
273 search-return-data =/ "MODSEQ" SP mod-sequence-value
|
yuuji@0
|
274 ;; mod-sequence-value is defined
|
yuuji@0
|
275 ;; in [CONDSTORE]

287 5. Security Considerations
|
yuuji@0
|
288
|
yuuji@0
|
289 In the general case, the IMAP SEARCH/UID SEARCH commands can be CPU
|
yuuji@0
|
290 and/or IO intensive, and are seen by some as a potential attack point
|
yuuji@0
|
291 for denial of service attacks, so some sites/implementations even
|
yuuji@0
|
292 disable them entirely. This is quite unfortunate, as SEARCH command
|
yuuji@0
|
293 is one of the best examples demonstrating IMAP advantage over POP3.
|
yuuji@0
|
294
|
yuuji@0
|
295 The ALL and COUNT return options don't change how SEARCH is working
|
yuuji@0
|
296 internally; they only change how information about found messages is
|
yuuji@0
|
297 returned. MIN and MAX SEARCH result options described in this
|
yuuji@0
|
298 document can lighten the load on IMAP servers that choose to optimize
|
yuuji@0
|
299 SEARCHes containing only one or both of them.
|
yuuji@0
|
300
|
yuuji@0
|
301 It is believed that this extension doesn't raise any additional
|
yuuji@0
|
302 security concerns not already discussed in [IMAP4].
|
yuuji@0
|
303
|
yuuji@0
|
304 6. IANA Considerations
|
yuuji@0
|
305
|
yuuji@0
|
306 IMAP4 capabilities are registered by publishing a standards track RFC
|
yuuji@0
|
307 or an IESG-approved experimental RFC. The registry is currently
|
yuuji@0
|
308 located at <http://www.iana.org/assignments/imap4-capabilities>.
|
yuuji@0
|
309
|
yuuji@0
|
310 This document defines the ESEARCH IMAP capability, which IANA added
|
yuuji@0
|
311 to the registry.
|
yuuji@0
|
312
|
