There have been lots who complain that Bat IMAP is unworkable, but I continue to find it superior over all to anything else. I only have one account, which has 62 folders, and nearly 54,000 messages. It collects all my POP accounts, and all my gmail gets forwarded there. I haven't looked directly at gmail for months, nor any of my POP accounts unless there is some reason to send a message using one of those addresses. I also use thunderbird occasionally for testing, and on a regular basis to compact all my folders, since theBat doesn't manage that well. Looking forward to beta testing the new IMAP, expecting to set up additional IMAP accounts for that, and changing habits on my POP accounts. -- Dwight A.
