University of Washington IMAP C-Client
--------------------------------------
-You will need a source distribution of University of Washington's IMAP
-c-client (http://www.washington.edu/imap/). Asterisk supports both the
-2004 and 2006 versions of c-client, however mail_expunge_full is enabled
-in the 2006 version.
+If you do not have the University of Washington's IMAP c-client
+installed on your system, you will need to download the c-client
+source distribution from http://www.washington.edu/imap/ and compile it.
+Asterisk supports the 2007 version of c-client as there appears to be issues
+with older versions which cause Asterisk to crash in certain scenarios. It
+is highly recommended that you utilize a current version of the c-client
+libraries. Additionally, mail\_expunge\_full is enabled in the 2006 and later
+versions.
Note that Asterisk only uses the 'client' portion of the UW IMAP toolkit,
but building it also builds an IMAP server and various other utilities.
------------------
Configure with ./configure --with-imap=/usr/src/imap
-or where ever you built thfe UWashington IMAP Toolkit. This directory
+or wherever you built thfe UWashington IMAP Toolkit. This directory
will be searched for a source installation. If no source installation is
found there, then a package installation of the IMAP c-client will be
searched for in this directory. If one is not found, then configure will fail
A second configure option is to not specify a directory (i.e.
./configure --with-imap). This will assume that you have the
-imap-2004g source installed in the .. directory relative to the
+imap-2007e source installed in the ../imap directory relative to the
Asterisk source. If you do not have this source, then configure will
default to the "system" option defined in the next paragraph
that without UID_EXPUNGE, Asterisk voicemail will expunge ALL messages marked
for deletion when a user exits the voicemail system (hangs up the phone).

This version supports UIDPLUS, which allows UID_EXPUNGE capabilities. This
feature allow the system to expunge ONLY pertinent messages, instead of the
default behavior, which is to expunge ALL messages marked for deletion when
will check if the UID_EXPUNGE feature is supported by the server, and use it
if possible.
