Show HN: Distributed JMAP and IMAP Servers in Rust
Hi, I would like to mention that some work on a Rust SMTP server has been already done with the Kannader project[1] (Disclaimer: I have no contribution on it but I know the maintainer).
I also work on a Rust IMAP server that is far from being as feature complete as yours. I also chose your `mail-parser` library to parse RFC822/5822, but we observed that in many cases, we did not have enough information to build some BODY/BODYSTRUCTURE responses. We also discovered that line count and many details are not very obvious on IMAP, did you run some tests to compare your IMAP server outputs to existing servers? Or, more generally, what is your approach to ensure compatibility / integration with the existing email ecosystem?
In any case, congratulation for your project, we will follow it closely! I experimented how big these protocols became with all their extensions, this is an impressive work!

Sandstorm, Tempest, and the Future
I don't see why we are a long way away. At the sandstorm end, we need to get to the point, where all updates (of both sandstorm and the apps) on the user machine are automatic. Much like they are automatic on various OSes (mobile OSes in particular but also MacOS/Windows). This is not impossible if a single OS like Debian-testing is targeted.
Mailinabox [1] almost does it. They target Ubuntu stable, and upgrades are mostly silent. But they needed user intervention when Ubuntu had to be upgraded from 18.10 to 22.04, which was quite challenging.
If sandstorm can get there, then putting it into a RPi box is simple. What's difficult is helping the general public understand the importance of protecting their data, so such a product has a reasonable market.

[advice needed] - Selfhosted Mail Server
If you have a better solution, for example a good provider who offer agency packages which allows many domains and there is no catch, for example very small disk space, then hit me right away. Otherwise, please share your experience with hosting your own mail service. I found https://mailinabox.email/ and https://www.iredmail.org/ for example, but never had any experience with neither of them.
