[sieve] Quesion about managesieve BNF

2010-02-27 01:16:52
Hi,

I have two minor questions about inconsistencies
in the BNF in draft-ietf-sieve-managesieve-09 and the ACAP RFC 2244.

1. In draft-ietf-sieve-managesieve-09 there is

     QUOTED-CHAR           = SAFE-UTF8-CHAR / DQUOTE QUOTED-SPECIALS

   And in RFC 2244 there is

     QUOTED-CHAR           = SAFE-UTF8-CHAR / "\" QUOTED-SPECIALS

   Or in words, draft-ietf-sieve-managesieve-09 allows DQUOTE
   as an escape character whereas RFC 2244 allows "\" as an
   escape. RFC 2244 seems to make more sense to me. Is the
   change in draft-ietf-sieve-managesieve-09 intentional?

2. In draft-ietf-sieve-managesieve-09 there is

     SAFE-UTF8-CHAR        = SAFE-CHAR / UTF8-2 / UTF8-3 / UTF8-4
                             ;; <UTF8-2>, <UTF8-3> and <UTF8-4>
                             ;; are defined in [UTF-8]

   And in RFC 2244 there is

     SAFE-UTF8-CHAR        = SAFE-CHAR / UTF8-2 / UTF8-3 / UTF8-4 /
                          UTF8-5 / UTF8-6

   I am curious to know why this change was made.
