IMAP handles the email synchronisation(1), the only problem is the contact synchronisation. Contacts don't change that much though, so occasional, manual copies to your devices is possible. It is strange that there isn't a good solution like IMAP for this.

- Wilduck 15y agoWith Gmail, my contacts change all the time. That is, every time a new person emails me, and I email them back.
- shadowfox 15y agoI used to have the same issue. Thankfully Thunderbird, which I switched to, has a bidirectional contact sync plugin for google contacts. FWIW the last time I tried KMail with GMail, there were some issues with how the folder-to-tag mapping worked. This ended up with me needing to untag a lot of stuff manually in my GMail. But since this was over a year and a half back, I wont really go by this. Things could well be better now
