Also it generates way to much traffic, if i send/receive an account and i dont get any new emails then it did tranfer more the 300KB of traffic. I dont mind that to much when i am in my own country. But in a foreign country that it really expensive. With my E90 and profimail, i just had profimail in a imap-idle configuration and that didnt generate much traffic at all. (the mobile java gmail client is even way better! there i can read many many mails and i only have 60-100kb of traffic) It seems that modest does get constantly all the id's of all my mails in the inbox. and i guess thats also the thing that makes Modest slow to use. it has to handle all that stuff.
