RFC 2244                          ACAP                     November 1997


      The FREECONTEXT command causes the server to free all state
      associated with the named context.  The context may no longer be
      searched and the server will no longer issue any untagged
      responses for the context.  The context is no longer counted
      against the server's limit on the number of contexts.

   Example:    C: A683 FREECONTEXT "blurdybloop"
               S: A683 OK "Freecontext completed"


6.5.2.   UPDATECONTEXT Command

   Arguments:  list of context names

   Data:       untagged responses: ADDTO REMOVEFROM CHANGE MODTIME

   Result:     OK - Updatecontext completed: all updates completed
               NO - Updatecontext failed: no such context
                                          not a notify context
               BAD - command unknown or arguments invalid

      The UPDATECONTEXT command causes the server to ensure that the
      client is notified of all changes known to the server for the
      contexts listed as arguments up to the current time.  The contexts
      listed in the arguments must have been previously given to a
      successful SEARCH command with a MAKECONTEXT NOTIFY modifier.  A
      MODTIME untagged response MUST be returned if any read-write
      metadata in the context changed since the last MODTIME for that
      context.  This includes metadata which is not listed in the RETURN
      modifier for the context.

      While a server may issue untagged ADDTO, REMOVEFROM, CHANGE, and
      MODTIME at any time, the UPDATECONTEXT command is used to "prod"
      the server to send any notifications it has not sent yet.

      The UPDATECONTEXT command SHOULD NOT be used to poll for updates.

   Example:    C: Z4S9 UPDATECONTEXT "blurdybloop" "blarfl"
               S: Z4S9 OK "client has been notified of all changes"


6.5.3.   ADDTO Untagged Response

   Data:       context name
               entry name
               position
               metadata list
