I guess Google thought I wasn’t cool enough, because starting last week, Gmail had been phasing in IMAP. But today, they’ve finally announced the darn thing for everyone.
Seriously. Took them long enough! I guess it wasn’t ranked high on the list of priorities at Google, seeing how iPhone users are like one in a million (and yes, I know there are non-iPhone users who would be interested in IMAP… but I’m sure the push for it had to do something with it). But still, I trusted Google to step it up and to bring their A game. I didn’t want to create some kind of kludge forwarding system to Yahoo! and have to deal with other accounts.
Huzzah.
