Yup... we would need to understand the details better (e.g. ROI, impact, future support, etc.) but my initial thinking is if we can lower the friction for implementation and enable the EAI feature set in a widely used platform, that is something worth considering.
Dovecot is the IMAP server that approximately everyone in the world uses. If they add EAI support, it'll be part of their standard supported offering.

$70,000. My understanding is that the UASG has always underspent its annual budgets by hundreds of thousands of dollars so the money is there.

I gather we have a bid to add EAI support to the widely used Dovecot POP/IMAP server. It's expensive, but if we are serious about EAI support, it's definitely worth it.
