    Gmail works with it.

    But Gmail could technically pump the same ads over IMAP if they wanted to.

      Technically it’s not the same, in case of IMAP they would need to literally put spam mails into your account. As opposed to having visual elements in the UI that pretend to be an email. Might not feel like a big difference but actively poisoning the users inbox is pretty bad.

        Yeah, while technically possible, I don’t see that happening for the exact reason you said. 👍
