Not  to  mention,  if  you  are  running  8.15  HF2  or greater, there
shouldn't  be  an issue with IMAP. At least according to messages that
have been sent previously to this list and other sources.

I'm  currently  running  8.15  HF2  and  have  IMAP enabled. Have been
running this way now for as long as HF2 has been out. Haven't seen any
issues going on.

According  to Mr. Bloksma's SMTP prompt, it looks as though he's using
v8.21.  I do not believe IMAP has an issue in that version. I could be
wrong. It wouldn't be the first time. :-)
