In Need of an IMAP Library for ActionScript

I've been scouring the interwebs for an ActionScript library for interacting with IMAP mail servers and have found absolutely nothing.  Does anyone know of one?  At the very least, I'd take documentation on using a binary socket to authenticate to an IMAP server.

    You can contact the author of the following library and ask him if he has started work on IMAP implementation (here it’s noted as TBD)

    Hi Bryan,

    Lee Brimelow has a good post / tutorial about socket programming and AS3, http://www.gotoandlearn.com/player.php?id=69. Is something like this what you are looking for?

    Take care,
    Sidney

    @Sidney I’ve seen Lee’s tutorial. I’m looking for something that allows me to connect to and perform operations on an IMAP mail server. Ideally, I’d like to find a library that’s already done. If that’s not available, I’d settle for documentation on how to connect to an IMAP server with an ActionScript socket and I’ll write and release a library.

    @Paulius Thanks for the heads up. I’ve contacted the author and hope to hear back from him.

    @Bryan did you ever hear back from Zach the developer of the AS3Mail project? I’ve tried getting in touch since I’m in need of a AS3 IMAP library.

    @jared I never found a library that implemented IMAP. I started writing my own, but ran into many issues. It was going to take too much work to get it to support all of the different IMAP variants.

    @Zhiye Unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of time to dedicate to this right now. I’d be willing to help when possible, but I don’t think I’d have a whole lot of time to contribute to the project.
