Unfortunatly, most ISPs today do not give an IMAP4 support.
My ISP said that they do not give this service and that all the other
ISPs in Israel do not give it as well. When I asked for the reason,
he simply repeated himself that "because nobody gives it.".
When I asked again for the -technical- reason, they said something
like: "I am sorry, but we cannot reveal secret internal company
information. We have our reasons.". In my last attempt to get the
answer I asked if he even KNOWS the answer, and he said that he knows,
and is just not allowed to give it.
I sepose that you'll hear the same from just about any normal dial-up ISP.
Therefor "tinkering" with POP3 accounts is sometimes the only choice.
(... its times like this that get me to think that maybe the users
arent really important to them as they claim. No duh.)
