Worth checking into however, maybe it will still play nicely with IMAP. Just came across a post related, something else to check out.

My final method was to set it as a Homepage in a browser I rarely used, I chose Camino. But that wasn’t enough; I still needed to remember to launch Camino. Final outcome is that I set up a very annoying crontab to open Camino every 30 minutes; this ensures I don’t lose focus of getting things done. Below is my crontab entry for this task (Windows users I believe need to set up Scheduled Tasks). 0/30 * * * * open /Applications/Camino.app You could just as easily open up any other application or site that suits your workflow habits a bit better.
