Hello all,
I've decided to go the IMAP way at our company... (phone change and multiple devices without Exchange)...
Now that we are here, it looks like Outlook 2013 doesn't like IMAP at all... and I'm having lots of problems: non synchronizing folders, Sent items go there only after applying a rule... Today I've received a really old message as unread into the Junk folder. 
In case I'm trying to get something to work which won't (there are several places around that show complaints regarding that)... which would be your recommendation on a mail client? I've tried Mozilla Thunderbird and it just worked... (It is uglier than Outlook and makes less things, but it works...) I'm about to propose every single user in the company to switch to Thunderbird, but before doing that (which will be difficult for everyone)...
Can Outlook 2013 work well with IMAP? should I do something to get it working as expected?
Thank you in advance!

Has anyone at Microsoft heard of testing? Perhaps they all quit with Ballmer.

Of course they have - the call it RTM though.

The first one seems that will be possibly helpful...
I'll check it and let's see... Crossing fingers here... 
Thank you for posting that.

Thank you Richard, at the end the biggest issue was Avira... the antivirus software was trying to check each message transaction and made it impossible for outlook to synch correctly...
Looks like it's time to change the antivirus software at our company...
Anyway apart of that following the small tip/trick I've posted here solves most of the issues...

There are good reasons to use outlook, mainly calendar, tasks, notes, integration with other products, available add-ins
the main reason not to use outlook is performance. It is slow, especially so when working with IMAP although the performance with exchange isn't blistering
The particular issue you describe could also be down to other devices that are accessing the account. In particular I have seen old messages resurrected when accounts are also used on phones so not sure that the desktop client is always the one to blame
I have seen email servers that attempt to make imap behave more like exchange (older versions of FTGate for one) and experience suggests that it is worth turning these "enhancements" off to see if they improve the situation

Sorry Joan but I can offer nil assistance on this one.
However, with a great little break from it all, you may be able to come up with the answer.
Gran Premi Monster Energy De Catalunya 15th June at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
Just down the road from where you live. ...and it is pretty well guaranteed that a Spaniard will be Victorious.
This is the one international sport where Spain is so far ahead of the rest of the world.
Go there Murty and you will enjoy it immensely.
Especially since you have driven around the track in a car, so you know the the track.
I will be barracking for one young Spaniard for sure.

Yes, you are right, I truly hope to have it arranged before the 15th, but... (crossing-fingers).
Yay! I hope Marquez will do it!
I'm afraid I won't be able to go... working issues (a little orange robot is giving us some headache and must be finished around those dates).
Yes, I still remember the Lamborghini and the Ferrari... Quite better than the small thing I drive usually...
Most of the motor pilots that are great in Spain are Catalan, we do have plenty of world champions and winners in different motor categories... it looks like we are all ill of gasoline fever...

You know that TV program where they get a couple of teams to compete at building things from stuff 'found' on the scrapheap? They also have an expert assigned to each team.
Well, I would love to see Colin Furze[^] be on one of these programs.
Have you seen his latest creations at re-creating the X-Men Characters?

Magneto[^]
I love the Pyro one!

That was a good program - that turned...well...cr@p.
They built some incredible machines: Dick's "Walking Landy" and the episode with the homemade jet engines...

Inspired by the man shot with a tranquilizer and a lad in the office commenting he'd love to be shot with a tranquilizer to see what it felt like.
Normal athletics track, contestants line up, but instead of a starting pistol each one is shot in the ass with a tranquilizer dart, this signals they should start running.
The winner is whoever can run the farthest.
Different strength shots can be used to get different length races.
Don't tell me you wouldn't watch that.

That would be hilarious!

Maybe if it were a "celebrity" event. And maybe have a steamroller or similar set to follow the pack to encourage any stragglers.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

You need separate categories; politicians and lawyers, and adjust the strengths accordingly!
If first you don't succeed, hide all evidence you ever tried!

Why would you need to adjust the strength? Surely "lethal" is the correct dose for both of those groups.
