This is a project for which we have already committed resources, but the
IMAP part hasn't started. The LDAP client part is designed to interact

It will be released under an Open Source license.

Interaction with IMAP and LDAP servers, yes. Jabber is not in the
current plans, even though we're thinking about it.
