IMAP is IMAP and it should work in every Client. And as far as I
understand Andreas he only asked why "The Bat" is not having a real
IMAP functionality. What the Bat offers is a functionality that is
like POP3 only that it uses the IMAP protocol for fetching mails.

So, Andreas, you are right this is a problem found out not only by
you. The developers of The Bat already are working hard to implement
that feature in the new version (2.0). The first Beta-Versions where
the new IMAP functinality is included should come out in the next
days. So wait for a while - and soon you will be able to handle your
GMX account by IMAP with The Bat.
