Yeah, IMAP is some time a little buggy. But this was the only option to make sure people get their messages over weekends and Holidays. Some people leaves there computer running with automatic get mail running every 15 minutes. Over the weekend, one could miss important emails that would be deleted from the server by the desktop using POP.
My 2 cents ;) Vincent Toussaint -----Original Message----- From: imail_forum-ow...@list.ipswitch.com [mailto:imail_forum-ow...@list.ipswitch.com] On Behalf Of Nektar Meletakos Sent: Thursday, December 18, 2008 11:35 AM To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Smart Phones We POP for both client and Smart Phones(Sony Ericson, IPhone) and leave a copy on the server from the phone...desktop doesn't leave a copy. For our blackberrys we simply use the provided email address (@rogers.blackberry.net) and forward from IMail to that address. Within the blackberry account you can change the sent from to reflect your corporate email address so people receiving the message are none the wiser. As for IMAP, we find IMAP to be slow and buggy..but we are using it on accounts that maintain thousands of emails in the IMAP folders, so that's probably why!
