I-D ACTION:draft-shapira-snap-04.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

	Title		: Simple Notification and Alarm Protocol (SNAP)
	Author(s)	: N. Shapira 
	Filename	: draft-shapira-snap-04.txt
	Pages		: 30
	Date		: 01-Jul-02
	
This memo suggests a protocol for messaging notification in
which a messaging system (e.g. email server, voice mail system, 
etc.) notifies a notification service, and through it the user,
that changes have occurred in a user's mailbox (new message
arrived, mailbox is full, etc.). The protocol aims to provide the
end-user with unified notification of events occurring on different
messaging systems.
A mailing list has been established to discuss this draft and
promote the issue of Notification to RFC. To subscribe, send
email with 'subscribe snap' to majordomo <at> lists.neystadt.org
or using web at http://www.neystadt.org/cgi-bin/majordomo.

List of changes (can be found in Appendix):

  21. Added mail client security considerations when dealing with special
      identifier "anyone".

  22. Clarified that negative rights are not the same as DELETEACL (ACL DELETE).

  23. Removed the requirement to check the "r" right for CHECK, SEARCH and
      FETCH, as this is required for SELECT/EXAMINE to be successful.

ANNOTATEMORE Wildcards


I've been doing some work on our implementation of ANNOTATEMORE, and I've
been having trouble deciding what to do with some globs.

My concerns focus mostly around the integration of the mailbox names into
entry names.  If '.' is being used as the mailbox hierarchy delimiter,
does % fail to match on '/' and '.'?  Does it include or exclude '}'?

Does '/mailbox/%/foo' resolve to the same thing as '/mailbox/{*}/foo' or
'/mailbox/{%}/foo'

What if only one of the braces is missing?

Does '/mailbox/{user.%/foo' work equivilantly to '/mailbox/{user.*}/foo'
or '/mailbox/{user.%}/foo'?

Also, is it really necessary to allow '/mail%/{user.foo}/foo' as a
pattern?  Personally, I don't see any use for wildcards at all in the
first level of mailbox and server annotations, especially since mailbox
annotations have the second level of mailbox names before you get to the
actual entry names.

I propose the following change:

Allow wildcards only in the following locations (denoted by the * below):

/mailbox/{*}/*
/server/*

For mailbox annotations, inside of the braces % will refuse to match the
