As part of expanding the Swift on Server ecosystem, we’re thrilled to announce the release of a new IMAPv4 parser and encoder, SwiftNIO IMAP.

The Swift Server Workgroup introduced SwiftNIO IMAP, a new open-source package for parsing and encoding IMAPv4 messages, offering type-safe Swift data structures, high performance, and integration with SwiftNIO.

It supports the IMAPv4rev1 standard (RFC 3501) and over 20 extensions, handling complex tasks like transparent literal encoding and decoding for both client and server messages.

The package includes IMAPClientHandler and IMAPServerHandler for easy integration into SwiftNIO’s ChannelPipeline, enabling robust email applications.
