Hi Sahil,
POP3 should download the newly created folders, unless there are some
other idiosyncrasies of which we're not aware. But as a matter of
practice, why the mismatch? Better to have users on IMAP from desktop
and notebook. Unless this is a mandate "from above" or a legacy issue,
move everyone to IMAP!
well, IMAP needs far more resources on the mail server, so for some
users POP3 is desirable. :-)
Is this a real measured problem or a theoretical one?
(Tip: implementing some sort of compression tunnel end to end can really
speed up imap header downloads over slower connections (actually I find
it speeds up opening larger mailboxes in Thunderbird even over a 5mbit
connection...)
Good luck
