Hey Niklas.

Awesome work on this so far, you have made great progress!

I have a couple of questions/suggestions:

firstly for the created url that is sent through url-dispatcher. It
would be great if it could be and rfc 5092 [1] compliant IMAP url.
Particularly because this is the standard for referencing objects on a
remote IMAP server but it also includes some useful info like the
UIDVALIDITY which ideally a client should be checking, to be sure that
the UIDs  have not changed between the poll session and the new session
created from the dispatched url.

Also in terms of how Dekko works it would be really helpful if the
message partid was included as well, so that we would have a direct
pointer to the exact message part you created the notification from.
Which we can directly fetch and not have to parse the mime structure
again to find the interesting part.

Secondly, I read you blog post but it wasn't entirely clear to me how a
user will select the client to consume the notifications. IIRC url-
dispatcher was recently made clever and if more than one app is
registered to consume the same protocol/scheme then the user is prompted
to select which app to use. Would it make sense to just utilize that?
This is the current state for the mailto: protocol so it would make
sense to keep it consistent. What's your thoughts?

Keep up the great work!

Bug description:
  Hi!

  In the BQ E4.5 Ubuntu Edition, I'm not getting notificactions for new
  mails.

  Testing (by example)
  1. Kill Dekko.
  2. Send you an email.
  3. Open Dekko.
  4. Change quickly to another app before Dekko starts.
  5. Bug: No notification
  6. Go to Dekko: You'll see your new mail.

  FYI as improvement, for me, in Dekko is not clear if Dekko checks the
  mail after X minutes or is a push notification.

  Thanks in advance!
