Ditto. I have a 16Mb broadband connection. I copied 2000 e-mails to my
Fastmail server as a test. TBird can get it all there in less than a
minute. TB! hangs, sometimes copying only 400 e-mails before quitting.
I also noted with TBird that the message counters for the folder I am
copying to (on the IMAP server) is updated in real time. With TB!,
messages are copied over, I see the message list, but no message
counters appear until I starting marking mail read.
I do not have the duplicate problem.
It also appears IDLE may not work properly. When I have new mail in my
IMAP inbox, TB! always showed unread mail in the box (bold folder
name, message counter shows unread), now that only functions intermittently.
I am beginning to have serious doubts about the future of IMAP on TB!, I
really don't think it will happen... ever. Every IMAP client I can
think of (that works) had IMAP built-in from the beginning. The IMAP
clients that don't work too hot (TB!, Poco, Courier, Pegasus, Eudora), all
started life as a POP client, IMAP was added later and it's broke in
some way or another.
