As you may know, Google is adding IMAP access to Gmail. A day and a half later my Gmail account is still IMAP-less. They said it would be happening to all accounts over the next couple of days, so I’m not worried.
What’s interesting to me, though, is that it seems like everyone who didn’t get it immediately still hasn’t gotten it. I’m constantly reading (and posting…) messages on Twitter about accounts getting no IMAP love, still. Even larger sites like Download Squad and TUAW seem to be out in the cold here. I imagine that Google would have to activate the features on a server-by-server basis… but it almost looks like Gmail operates on only 2 servers.
Question to you: If you didn’t get IMAP immediately the other night, have you gotten it since?
I’ve got my IMAP settings available now. Haven’t had the chance to set it up since I’m swamped with work out here in Lisbon, but once I get back to Toronto, I’ll play with it and let you know wha I think.
