I'm also confused.
I have both POP and IMAP accounts on this computer and they do just
great together. I had two POP accounts then added IMAP. The only real
changes I had to make was to define the SMTP server for each account and
change the default account. Other than that they do all keep separate
(no one in basket). If you come from Eudora days this separation may
seem odd, but once you get used to it then the accounts are kept cleaner
with less filtering shenanigans.
That said IMAP support on Seamonkey is poor at best. Lots of bugs and
issues with attachments, refreshing, hung folders, deleting, etc.
Thunderbird (which I use at home) is no better.
Odd. I have none of those issues with SM IMAP.
You must be lucky.

and for SeaMonkey:

And of course SeaMonkey MailNews is built on Thunderbird code:

I've just added a few IMAP accounts (normally all of my accounts are
POP3), and just today was bitten by this bug:
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406929>
["message was sent but copying to sent folder failed" error after IMAP
timeout]
Account has a total of 5 test messages - all less than 10 lines of plain
text, no HTML, no attachments.
And with the same IMAP, I've just been hit by a bug I've not yet found
an existing report for; first line of received message is missing. Might
be the IMAP server as the 'Sent' on this one shows the line as
sent/intact, but the received (I bcc all messages back to me & another
account (POP3)) does not.
The ones that kill me the most are the corrupted or incomplete
attachment downloads (PDF especially) as well as inability to delete
folders properly.
And while I am on my soap box I wonder when the spinning cursor issue
will actually be fixed in mail?
