> I'm intrigued by the idea of IMAP on the phone though. Are you able to sync sent mail this way? If you send mail from mobile, will the PC client get a copy of it?
Nope, I use phone mostly to browse mail, and send from there if and only if inevitable. And if the sent mail is too important to keep, I BCC myself and sort it out on the PC later. If your mail provider saves sent mail, I guess you could just fetch that; mine doesn't. Also I guess depending on your phone MUA, maybe you could fetch it from its storage. WRT IMAP, I just use it like POP3 w/ keep on, used it b/c was easier to set up. Phones are incredibly inconvenient for typing anything that's not a whatsapp blurb, so I mostly use it that way.
It seems smart to keep the mail on the server for a while, I'd be glad to know how you do that.
