The OP had posted a detailed reply here as well, that they since deleted - I think because they didn't want to deal with all the pushback here.
- ltiger 3mo agoNo, I'm not afraid of pushback at all. I'm actually really glad I used IMAP. Building on top of it let me solve a few major protocol headaches directly in the client: The app filters out signature junk (like tiny social media and logo icons), pulls down just the raw attachments instead of downloading entire 20-year-old message threads, and handles thousands of images while gracefully managing Google's rate limits (to avoid connection drops).
