I doubt this very much.

motivated to have IMAP working, but it's proving to be a challenge. At
the same time, TB!'s development in other areas cannot be left at a
standstill because IMAP has problems. It's still first and foremost, a
POP3 client and works fantastically as such.

IMAP has been grafted unto a mainly POP3 foundation. I guess they'll
eventually work things out. I don't know when though.

It seems to be very challenging for them and we have to be prepared to
wait for things to be fixed. We'll feel left behind as the client is
enhanced in other areas because they have a mainly POP3 userbase to
cater to.

I'm now indifferent since I've freed myself of relying on TB! to come of
age with IMAP.

I have a reliable solution for IMAP and that's ThunderBird. TB! is a
potentially better solution if the IMAP actually works without crippling
problems. I wait patiently in the sidelines for if and when that
happens. In the meantime ThunderBird is improving as well.
