I can't confirm or not as I don't have sufficient experiences with
other clients. And don't worry I am sure that with TB! we have an
excellent product that can do all the work we need to fulfill. I am
measuring TB! not only with IMAP but many other features like
filtering, Mass Mailing, Voyager etc.

Don't forget he was until now (for the past 10 years) using Outlook.
That is a true limit App. So we still have a lot of work in front of
us. Our next steps will be Filter creation and then simplifying the
amount of folders.

Let us find out on that.
I am challenged and I like to work with alternatives - as I wrote
before - satisfying and combining the "wishes" and "requirements".
