Gmail e o IMAP / Gmail and the IMAP

Tem corrido pela Net que o Google tem, finalmente, o protocolo IMAP disponivél no GMAIL. Dizem que nem todas as contas têm mas vão ter, e como ainda não testei na minha também não faço ideia se tenho ou não de qualquer forma quero deixar aqui uma tabela que relaciona as acções que executamos no programa de email e as acções correspondentes no GMAIL:

Action on mobile device/client (e.g. iPhone/Outlook) Result in Gmail on the web
Open a message Mark a message as read
Flag a message Apply a star to the message
Move a message to a folder Apply a label to the message
Move a message to a folder within a folder* Apply a label showing folder hierarchy ('MainFolder/SubFolder')*
Create a folder Create a label
Move a message to [Gmail]/Spam Report a message as spam
Move a message to [Gmail]/Trash Move a message to Trash
Send a message Store message in Sent Mail
Delete a message in inbox Remove the message from inbox
Delete a message from a folder Remove that label from the message
Delete a message from [Gmail]/Spam or [Gmail]/Trash Delete the message permanently

------

It has been around the Internet that Google has, finally, the IMAP protocol in the GMAIL accounts. They say that not all accounts have them now, but later will do, and since I haven't tested on mine account, so I too don't make a clue if it's there or not. Anyway I would like to share a table that gives relations between the actions we execute on the email program and the actions GMAIL does on our account:

Action on mobile device/client (e.g. iPhone/Outlook) Result in Gmail on the web
Open a message Mark a message as read
Flag a message Apply a star to the message
Move a message to a folder Apply a label to the message
Move a message to a folder within a folder* Apply a label showing folder hierarchy ('MainFolder/SubFolder')*
Create a folder Create a label
Move a message to [Gmail]/Spam Report a message as spam
Move a message to [Gmail]/Trash Move a message to Trash
Send a message Store message in Sent Mail
Delete a message in inbox Remove the message from inbox
Delete a message from a folder Remove that label from the message
Delete a message from [Gmail]/Spam or [Gmail]/Trash Delete the message permanently
