>> This feature is discussed (in a positive, it just works, sense) a lot >> online because it has been a feature for a long time with IMP3/4. It >> was quite hard to to find this page and properly confirm that it is >> now depreciated in IMP5. I have added a (rather terse, sorry, I was >> suffering a sense of humour failure) note to the Wiki page about this. > > No, this ticket does not implement the previous functionality. The > old code was nothing more than a web interface to a (not very > optimized) PHP port of fetchmail. Which wasn't all that useful for > anyone with more than a few hundred messages, since PHP would > time-out or memory fail long before you could synchronize an account. > > This ticket is instead a request to add foreign accounts to appear > natively in the UI. Which would allow access of these accounts > without expensive overhead (and allow the synchronization of mail > actions). > >> From the search results seen before I found this page I imagine that >> hosting providers (plesk/cpanel based) will have a strong incentive >> to get this restored since they have been offering IMP as a mail >> aggregator service to their customers. They may well feel that this >> issue is a blocker for IMP5 adoption. > > I would love to see this request also. But the people that currently > pay me to work on IMP do not have this as a priority. Unfortunately, > that is the reality of the situation, especially for something as > resource intensive as this request.
