I don't even know how to explain all the problems I had with imap. It's been almost a year since I last fought with it, but I sem to recall losing lots of messages and things of that nature. I haven't attempted using it since I upgraded to windows 7, so maybe it would work better under outlook than it did under outlook express, but when I was still using XP, I just found imap to be hateful. I wish I could remember more specifically went wrong, but that's the only answer I can give for now.

How did things go wrong for you? Just curious. Maybe someone on list has encountered the same problems and knows how to fix them.
