=======================================================================

Now the questions again with their answers.

=======================================================================
Q. Give me some design ideas of imapsync

R.

* No configuration file
* Stateless
* Rsync in mind
* Reliable
* Robuste
* The user is not an expert, help him with:
  * Good behavior by default. 
  * No harm by default. 
  * Prefer fixing an issue in the code than documenting the issue
  * Inline help suggestions

Consequences of those design ideas:

* Stateless: 

   * A sync can be done by another tool before or after imapsync, it is
   safe as long as the other tools don't modify the messages' headers 
   "Message-Id:" and "Received:", or at least "Message-Id:".

   * Ready to run in a container.
