The IMAP4 protocol allows clients to separately retrieve any of the individual MIME parts and also to retrieve portions of either individual parts or the entire message.

While popular protocols for retrieving mail include POP3 and IMAP4, sending mail is usually done using the SMTP protocol.

By contrast, the use of both a webmail client and a desktop client using the IMAP4 protocol allows the contents of the mailbox to be consistently displayed in both the webmail and desktop clients and any action the user performs on messages in one interface will be reflected when email is accessed via the other interface.

The IMAP WG decided to rename IMAP2bis to IMAP4 to avoid confusion with a competing IMAP3 proposal from another group that never got off the ground.

For users with many or large messages, this IMAP4 usage pattern can result in faster response times.

IMAP4 clients can create, rename, and / or delete mailboxes ( usually presented to the user as folders ) on the server, and copy messages between mailboxes.

standard supports integers between 1 and 127 ( inclusive ) in the protocol.

The basic Internet email transmission protocol, SMTP, supports only 7-bit ASCII characters ( see also 8BITMIME ).

Typically this means that they are packaged with the kernel in the boot image, and the kernel supports a bootstrap protocol that defines how the drivers are located and started ; this is the traditional bootstrap procedure of L4 microkernels.

This " POP4 " proposal added basic folder management, multipart message support, as well as message flag management, allowing for a light protocol which supports some popular IMAP features which POP3 currently lacks.

A network or protocol that supports QoS may agree on a traffic contract with the application software and reserve capacity in the network nodes, for example during a session establishment phase.

For routing multicast IP traffic, OSPF supports the Multicast Open Shortest Path First protocol ( MOSPF ) as defined in RFC 1584.

# Although conceptually a single-master bus, a slave device that supports the " host notify protocol " acts as a master to perform the notification.

# SMBus also supports an " address resolution protocol ", wherein devices return a 16-byte " universal device ID " ( UDID ).

The AFP protocol natively supports Resource Forks, and so resource forks are typically transmitted to these volumes as-is, and stored by the server transparently to clients.

The SMB protocol supports a file metadata system similar to Macintosh forks known as Alternate Data Streams ( ADSes hereafter ).

RIP supports cross-platform distance vector routing whereas IGRP is a Cisco Systems proprietary distance vector routing protocol.
