Description

Hi there!

This package looks really cool and promising :)

I'd like to use this tool for my clients in my SAAS. However, most of them will not be able to manage their DNS settings to set up a service like Sengrid. For them it would be easier (and more secure in my opinion) to enter an IMAP configuration.

Can you give me any direction? This is not possible at the moment right? And, I probably would need to create a custom driver, right?

Since you'd need to do an active request towards IMAP (instead of having a webhook), this would need another approach I am afraid, which is totally out of scope of this library...

EDIT: The best solution that came up in my mind: we could use the webhook (like all drivers do) to do a 'pull' from the IMAP mailbox. The webhook should be triggered using a cron (like cron-job.org). This way we keep it the way most drivers work.

Regards, Bob
