I am clearly blaming Gmail for discontinuing IMAP support, which seems to me clearly as a foul practice of abusing dominance over the market via introduction of non-standard ways, while also halting support for the standards. They would perish if they were to do this as a small company, and make benefit out of it by "pushing" their products as a bundle, just because a sizeable amount of people are dependent on their services.

I have things still happily using IMAP, in fact gmail on my iPhone is still showing IMAP-like folders, further more the gmail help still shows the IMAP configuration procedure[1].

- smt88 8y agoSorry, you are absolutely right. Gmail supports IMAP as a server. Email discontinued support for importing emails from IMAP sources in Gmail itself. That's what I was thinking of.
- smt88 8y agoSorry, turns out it's 100% Apple's fault. Why not use a third-party mail client?
