I too am lurking while sup goes through its early development phases.
In the meantime I use GMail and OfflineIMAP and other than the
occassional bug out from OfflineIMAP things have been working pretty
smoothly for a couple of months.  It's much faster than IMAP, especially
with my mua of choice: mutt.

No, you still send mail using GMail's SMTP server.  It will sync back
any changes you make to the folder structure though.

I figured it out from this link:

Good luck!
