JMAP: Like IMAP but Not Really

It has been a long time since I looked at IMAP. Are servers that do this now commonplace? (None I could find used to.)

Can I know from a capability exchange if the remote server will send emails after adding to the "Outbox" folder?

No, not as far as I'm aware. But it's an idea I've also had. Upload the message to drafts, and then when you're ready to send, just move it to Outbox right?

That would be ideal. Keep SMTP as a server-to-server protocol only and IMAP as server-to-client.
