Description

A somewhat crazy idea but, perhaps we could use something like th `imap` crate in Rust to listen for mails and report them to the users notification room?

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reviewing how existing project-management bridges receive events and report them to Matrix notification rooms, then assess how an IMAP listener could fit that flow. Done means a defined IMAP integration can listen for mail and report relevant messages to users’ notification rooms.
