IMAP Idle Plugin Description

IMAP Idle Plugin - Implement support for IMAP IDLE in Mail.app. IMAP Idle Plugin - Apple's mail client (Mail.app) manages IMAP accounts, but does'nt support the IDLE extension (RFC 2177).IDLE is good, because it lets the server notify clients when new mail arrives, meaning that clients don't have to poll. Or at least, will get new mail more often than $POLL_INTERVAL.The IMAP Idle Plugin implements support for IDLE in Mail.app. It opens a connection for each IMAP account, selects the INBOX, enters IDLE mode, and waits for messages. When it gets a message from the server indicating that new mail has arrived, it causes Mail.app to check for new mail in that account.What's New in This Release:· This version asks Mail to sync and fetch, due to user reports that just a sync doesn't always catch new mail. It also fixes a memory management issue that caused occasional crashes
