Anyone have experience or recommendations for 3rd party IMAP clients for Blackberries?
I need to fully sync 3 different email accounts to one BB. All accounts are hosted on IMAP servers (2 Kerio, 1 Mdaemon)
Last time I tried the built-in BB IMAP client it was semi-broken, eg could pull messages but would not sync deleted/sent msgs back to the server.

My first suggestion would be to dump the BB and get a Windows based phone.
Secondly, try this:

Logicmail was on my list to test this weekend
They want to switch from Treo 750w phones to BB due to reliability issues with the Treo and the lack of storage on them. Even with a 2gb card they run out of room - the roadwarriors think it's desktop email in their hand, not a mobile mail reader. Not that it'll be better with a BB.
Outlook on WM5/6 suffers from a 'broken' IMAP implementation also. No sync of sent or deleted items.
Checked into Versalink - they balked when I asked about multiple account sync.
ChatterEmail fits the bill but a PalmOS phone seems like a step back.

IMO, if you're using a push device and not using Exchange, you're in the dark ages. It works so well that I can't imagine not having it.
Yes, WM & Exchange work flawlessly. Been using it over 2 years with almost no problems - took a while to get setup on SBS2003. (inherited config)
I know there are some hacks to allow multiple Exchange account sync to a WM device but am not comfortable using them in a production environment with "gotta have it NOW" road-warrior types.
Found "Flexmail4" http://www.pocketinformant.com/products_info.php?p_id=mail& which looks rather promising as a full IMAP client for WM.
Thanks for your comments.
