Property Value
true if the Imap component is currently in the idle state; false otherwise.Remarks
RFC 2177 defines an idle state for IMAP, in which the client can send an IDLE command to the server, notifying the server that the client is ready to accept unsolicited updates.
The Imap.Idle property gets or sets the current idle state of the Imap component. When Imap.Idle is set to true, the IDLE command is sent to the server. The Imap component will remain in this state until the server sends an update. This will cause the Imap.Update event to be raised. The Imap component will remain in the idle state until Imap.Idle is set to false or any command is sent from the client.
