    It was pretty good, but it was hell to troubleshoot.

    I’ve had to set up IMAP on that app a whole bunch of times and if it decides it doesn’t like your server, it’ll grey out all the settings and show an infinite progress bar that does literally nothing, for up to minutes at a time. Settings that worked yesterday may suddenly be broken. The manual refresh button is more of a suggestion than anything else.

    I don’t expect Microsoft’s new “give us your password and we’ll download your email to our cloud, you can trust us” solution to work any better, though. These “apps” make me miss Windows Live Mail and its predecessor, Outlook Express.
