Lane, I agree with you on the all of the issues including that there are
several items I too
prefer to see addressed before IMAP or HTML improvements. But both IMAP
and HTML are most likely having to be better supported some time in the
future.
There are other bugs and improvements I'd like to

Webmail has made serious inroads into the popularity of IMAP. Webmail
offers portability of email across machines, and with adequate
functionality to please the majority of users interested in such
portability.
According to what reputable authority?

On the other hand, I turn on IMAP in PowerMail when I need it [for .mac
mail]; in the meantime I download it all as pop. Thunderbird emptied all
my folders on the server once.. that scared me off of using it for a while.

I use my .mac account as a POP3 one. Works fine. Any advantage to using
it as IMAP other than access to one's Sent mail from several machines?
My young grandson accesses his .mac

Alas, CTM has said that they won't be upping this limit. :(

For most, the biggest thing is being able to keep your mail at work,
home, and laptop all in sync.
I manage to do this with pop mail, by not deleting from server. However,
this works only for INCOMING.
But it doesn't really _work_.

Yes, there are indeed limitations. We position PowerMail as a full-blown
POP3 e-mail client with high speed indexing, but with lightweight IMAP
support i.e. for occasional use. The limitations you see are those of
our design goals.

So I think it would be nice, if these limitations within the IMAP-

I agree. IMAP is much beter than POP,
