    JMAP support would make a huge difference to expand the only open/free (as in speech) competition Exchange has.

      Agreed. Self hosting email with JMAP support has become easier with Stalwart. More email clients with JMAP support would be nice.

          I was reading that page and was just getting more and more confused and then eventually I realised it’s an alternative to IMAP. Pretty cool.

            I didn’t know JMAP either. Apparently the authors found the complexity and stagnation of IMAP as well as inability to integrate with basic groupware such as CalDAV caused free e-mail clients to be dropped in favor of proprietary systems. Seems like a fair assessment and if JMAP solves that I’d be very pleased.
