I would love to have my IMAP folders so I will try those other apps out when I get the phone.
I wont cancel my order just yet. I want to give it a chance. I just hope its not too big and heavy.
Thanks again!

I want to be able to see my replied to messages, read messages, and use the IMAP IDLE command for instant message delivery. I wanted the blackberry for the new keyboard and the jog dial.

That's it.
It doesn't sync folders. It doesn't sync period - so you can't use the actual features of IMAP that make IMAP cool. But it will let you pull messages via IMAP and zap them to your Bberry if you have your account provisioned for Blackberry data.
