IMAP is such a crock
I’ve got this far in my life without needing IMAP. Today, I wasted most of the day discovering that it’s an utter crock and is not capable of performing the modest task I had in mind for it. I can’t believe that somebody actually designed this junk, especially after they got it completely wrong once before with POP. Now, when I get back from my trip north—for which I’m ill-prepared after losing so much time with bloody IMAP—I’m going to have to sit down and design and implement something that actually works. I had other stuff that I wanted to write about, but it will have to wait; I’m beat.
