On Tuesday evening Google started rolling out IMAP support to Gmail and Google Apps accounts! This will be a great new feature because it now will allow people to use multiple devices to keep track of their email.
For example: I use my email account on my Mororola Q for quick email checking and then I use Mail.app on my MacBook Pro as my mail email program. This is possible through the IMAP protocol because all email is saved on the server not on the client side.
Before IMAP Google just provided POP which was not the best solution for multiple email clients and that was the reason for my hesitancy for switching to Google Apps. Now they have added the single feature that I needed so now I am switching as soon as possible!
