I hardly use my Amiga for e-mail. I have my own IMAP-server at home and IMAP-support on the Amiga is not up to scratch, making it hard to use my Amiga for mail. The moment this improves (whether it be through Simplemail or through YAM), I'll start using it on a more regular basis for reading & writing mail.
Life sucks. Then you die. Then they throw mud in your face. Then you get eaten by worms. Be happy it happens in that order... My Amiga 1200

Is IMAP *still* not supported by YAM?! Good grief, that was one of my main gripes with it when I still used it until a few years ago :\.

Nope. YAM itself is quite nice, but the lack of IMAP-support is a major drawback.

Simplemail more or less supports IMAP, but it still is not as comfortable when using IMAP compared to similar e-mailprograms running on Linux or Windows.

This means I hardly use my Miggies to read/write mail. Which is a bummer, as email is a task my A1200 would be more than capable of.
