I second that! I've played with a simple workaround for Gmail in which I
|
|
regularly check for flag changes when in the IDLE state, but I haven't
|
|
enabled it because I don't like that the workaround is not automatically
|
|
disabled when/if Gmail IDLE is improved.
|
|
|
|
I've also been wondering: The RFC on IMAP IDLE does not state it as a
|
|
requirement that servers must (or even should) report flag changes when
|
|
in the IDLE state. Has anyone done any experiments showing whether or
|
|
not this is a widespread IMAP server limitation (beyond Gmail)?
