Support for Yahoo Accounts #6

Looking at this library, it seems like it utilizes IMAP-Idle. However, Yahoo doesn't support IDLE, so I was wondering, does this service work for Yahoo accounts?

No, it likely doesn't work with Yahoo accounts. The design relies heavily on the presence of IDLE support.

Unfortunately, it's unlikely that I'll make any changes or improvements to this project. I've left the company using this code, and have moved on to another venture. It's best to consider the existing codebase stable but -- as of now -- unmaintained.
