I would be interested in hearing a better solution, possibly through a jailbroken device???

The reason I changed to POP3 was that I had intermittent problems with using IMAP to move messages around. These ended in me completely loosing some important emails. I'd be very carefull using IMAP if I were you - I now suspect the problems I had were linked to my iPod Touch not letting go of mail boxes after logging into them.
