RFC 5593: Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) - URL Access Identifier Extension

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The existing IMAP URL specification (RFC 5092) lists several <access> identifiers and <access> identifier prefixes that can be used to restrict access to URLAUTH-generated URLs. However, these identifiers do not provide facilities for new services such as streaming. This document proposes a set of new <access> identifiers as well as an IANA mechanism to register new <access> identifiers for future applications. This document updates RFC 5092. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
