Rather than echo all of what Allie has said in his reply I can confirm that (unlike Allie) I can't rely on TB for everyday, real-world IMAP use. It's just so frustrating to wait for a couple of minutes for messages to display while TB churns away. I can see my router working so it's not a matter of the prog hanging. I've now taken to closing and reopening TB at intervals and making a cup of coffee while it loads and sorts out its message base. Not good.
No, it isn't, and I understand EXACTLY what you're saying. See my reply to Allie above for an extreme example.
OTOH, Mulberry doesn't exhibit any of the IMAP issues here that TB does - and that's probably because it was designed primarily as an IMAP, rather than POP, client.
Yes, and Thunderbird has even few issues.
I experience duplicate messages, too, on a regular basis. My largest message bases are around 2,000 messages (TB groups) but I experience these hangs even on an account with just a few hundred messages. No combination of synchronisation or cache deletion really helps.
And this is all VERY discouraging....
