That hadn't raised OMA's karma, though.
As far as smartphones, the elephant in the room is Android, and Android's gmail client uses who knows what to talk to Google. But whatever it does, it's damn good about it. I think there's a standard mail client somewhere on my phone, that can talk to a generic IMAP server, but I never used it. I'm guessing that this is typical of Android.
On Iphones, I think that Apple's mail client is a standard IMAP/POP3 client, but, once again purely based on nothing more than an impression, Android's winning that battle.
