But IMO that's not a too important issue... And possibly the most common account - GMail - uses a server which doesn't support IMAP subscriptions. As a result, using Evolution or Thunderbind with GMail is painful: "NO, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T SYNC 'ALL MAIL' AGAIN!!!" (In case you're wondering, the university's systems have Evolution and not Gnus. If I die of heart failure brought on by high blood pressure, I know where to send my next-of-kin to sue...)
