I don't know that thunderbird has IMAP issues, but it sure has usability 
issues for users I put into it. Simple things that work so well in other 
clients like dragging a file into a composition window creating a local link 
to a file instead of attaching it to a message. Attachments received being 
handled by mime handlers. Attachments received just not opening on a double 
click, not saving off if that is chosen, but requiring to be dragged off a 
message to a folder and then opened. Its email address completion is a bit 
off the wall trying to suggest local domain finishes for everything typed in 
the to / cc fields.

There really is a market opportunity for a good independent solid MUA.

 -Enda.
