Errata ID: 2802
Status: Held for Document Update
Type: Editorial
Publication Format(s) : TEXT

Throughout the document, when it says:

imap: URI scheme

It should say:

'imap' URI Scheme

Notes:

The ":" (colon) character is not a part of URI scheme name. RFC 3986 says:

URI = scheme ":" hier-part [ "?" query ] [ "#" fragment ]
scheme = ALPHA *( ALPHA / DIGIT / "+" / "-" / "." )

i. e. ":" is a delimiter between scheme name and the remainder of URI.
