Inquiring minds want to know, and Google + forum search is failing to find any answers.

Using auto-setup for Gmail and hosted google domains use POP access in the BIS (although google has a special setup w/RIM for push email). TO setup IMAP you need to just input your email address at the account setup screen WITHOUT any password. It will then take you to a manual setup. For gmail IMAP the mail server is imap.gmail.com
You will not see any remote folders using IMAP and email delivery is polled - meaning 1-15 minutes.
