I'm not a huge fan of IMAP and it's looking pretty baroque by now, and POP is
so dysfunctional and ill-suited to mobile devices that phasing it out would
make sense. And a completely new protocol might actually be a good idea.
But *-over-HTTPS is almost certainly going to be worse than any of the above.
Nobody likes current IMAP, but IMAP v5 never took off.

Also the Courier extension for sending email over IMAP also didn't gain much
traction.

I still believe that a coordinated push to get a new version of IMAP would beat
stuff such as JMAP.
Thanks,
