A session-based IMAP client that implements the full command sets of the IMAP4rev2 (RFC 9051) and IMAP4rev1 (RFC 3501) protocols, along with the optional extensions registered with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, allowing virtually all e-mail operations to be performed from within R, paving the way for e-mail data analysis.
