Sorry, but IMHO these statements do not allow any diversity in
interpretation:

IMHO RITLabs does not make any difference between major and minor
releases: Release is release.

The mentioned above statements were done during 4.1.x series, so the
"next" release would be 4.2.x, i.e. *this* release. By the way wasn't
it you, who had the same opinion some months ago?

Why is it often so hard for people to admit, that something
(repeatedly) went wrong?

Yep, a binding statement from RITLabs would be highly appreciated!

Just for clarification: I am using four POP3 accounts and only one
IMAP account. I have sometimes little problems (aka "pet peeves") with
IMAP, but no real showstoppers.

But obviously there are a lot of people, who have *serious* problems
with IMAP support. So, dear RITguys, please hear the voice of the
customer!

Just my two cents …

Cheers!
