I coded some preliminary extension support and ported the annotatemore 
extension to it. It works, but isn't really tested yet.
One of the main problems I encountered was that the parser does not only need 
means to invoke the extension parser but also the other way round. Thus most 
of the parts of mailimap_parser have to be declared non-static. Are there any 
problems with that? I'm not too apt with shared libraries on linux - would 
removing the static export anything to the .so?

As soon as I cleaned up my stuff I'll send you a patch and some explanations 
so you can have a look at it and decide wether it's viable.

Regards,
Michael
