IMAP and SMS functionality are featured in the new version.

I went to their web site, but couldn't find the info.

Does it automatically checks for email, or do you need to start the process?

I'm not sure I'd call it IMAP functionality... that's going a bit far for something that seems to view IMAP as little more than just a different name for POP3.

Where's the proper support for downloading headers only via IMAP? Or for retrieving a list of remote mailboxes on the server, and letting you check that's in them - or even, heaven forbid, move a message to a remote folder?

Where are the options for handling attachments - ie leave on server, and so on - that you find in a real IMAP client?

If I wanted POP3, that's what I'd be using. I switched to IMAP for the extra features, but I've not yet found Palm client that offers much at all.

I might be a little more kindly disposed towards Iambic if it could actually get further than reading through 1.35k of message headers and then saying 'read error.'

Pretty poor show, frankly.

Anyone got a better suggestion for IMAP?
