I'm doing okay with it, but I only have one account. I used a windows 
mobile 5 and pop for years but recently went to android.

I have my desktop set up for pop3 and leave a copy on the server for a 
week. The Android 2.2 (froyo) uses imap with compression and push turned 
on in K-9. I need to keep copies on my desktop for legal/business 
reasons is why the desktop uses pop instead of imap.

I did run into a minor problem last night when trying to send email from 
the android. The g_con_perip was too low. I guess imap wanted more 
connections, so I increased it and now it sends okay.
