First off, Claws Mail is an outstanding application!!

So I just got my N800 a few days ago, updated it to OS08, and installed the app.

Problem 1:
When I set up my IMAP with Gmail, it only recognizes new messages as "unread," which doesn't seem to trigger any notifications. I have put the app in the background and turned the display off, and nothing. All new mail is flagged as "Unread," but not "New."

When I set it up as a POP3 account, however, notifications work.

Problem 2:
I had POP synced all day yesterday in the field with my mobile broadband over bluetooth and had no problems. Since I configured IMAP, however, every few hours or so a dialogue will come up wanting me to enter my password again and it basically freezes up.

Any workarounds or suggestions??

THANKS!!
