NAME
       Cyrus::IMAP::IMSP - Perl module for Cyrus IMSP user options

SYNOPSIS
	 use Cyrus::IMAP::IMSP;

	 my $client = Cyrus::IMAP::IMSP->new('imsphost'[, $port[, $flags]]);
	 $rc = $client->set('mailreader.window.size', '200x300');
	 %options = $client->get('mailreader.*')
	 $rc = $client->unset('mailreader.window.size');

DESCRIPTION
       This module is a Perl interface to the Cyrus IMSP functions that relate
       to user options (preferences). Only three IMSP operations are
       implemented: set, unset, and get.

METHODS
       new($server[, $port[, $flags]])
	   Instantiates a Cyrus::IMAP::IMSP object.  This is in fact a
	   Cyrus::IMAP object with a few additional methods, so all
	   Cyrus::IMAP methods are available if needed.	 (In particular, you
	   will always want to use the "authenticate" method.)

       error
	   Return the last error that occurred, or undef if the last operation
	   was successful.  This is in some cases (such as "get") the only way
	   to distinguish between a successful return of an empty list and an
	   error return.

	   Calling "error" does not reset the error state, so it is legal to
	   write:

	       %options = $client->get($option);
	       print STDERR "Error: ", $client->error if $client->error;

       set($option, $value)
	   Sets the option named by $option to the value in $value.

	   There are no restrictions or quoting rules needed to protect
	   special characters in the value argument. (The Cyrus::IMAP layer
	   will take care those details by adding double quotes or a literal
	   introducer.)

	   If successful, returns 1. Otherwise, returns undef and makes an
	   error message available through the "error" function.

       unset($option)
	   Removes the option named by $option. The option is completely
	   removed from the user's name space but will revert to a site-wide
	   default if one has been set. Note that this is different from
	   assigning an option the null value with set($option, '').

	   If you try to unset an option that does not exist, an error is
	   returned saying that the option was already unset.

	   If successful, returns 1. Otherwise, returns undef and makes an
	   error message available through the "error" function.

       get($option_pattern)
	   Get takes either an option name or a pattern of names to fetch. The
	   pattern can contain either "*" or "%" wildcards anywhere in the
	   string. The usual IMAP wildcard semantics apply.

	   The return value is a hash of options with each key being an option
	   name and each value being the option's value string. If an empty
	   hash is returned, it's either because there were no matching
	   options or because some error happened. Check the "error" function
	   to see which was the case.

	   The IMSP protocol also returns an access flag of "[READ-WRITE]" or
	   "[READ-ONLY]" but that information is discarded by this function. A
	   more complicated function that returns both the value and the
	   access flag could be added later if needed.
