Sorry, but I don't get it. I'll try to answer anyway... You have 2 commands: smd-pull that propagates chenges made on the server to the client, and smd-push that does the opposite. These changes include adding a message, deleting one, renaming, updaing the header... I usually pull more frequently than push, so the updating cycle you are describing is not strictly necessary in smd. In any case, the words server and client don't make any real sense here, it is very symmetric. I think I'll (I'm also the upstream) develop some sort while-true script that will iterate pull and push and eventually notify the user if something goes wrong with some modern eye-candy technology. AFAIK OfflineIMAP gives you (or will give you soon) something more called always-connected-with-ther-server-to-fetch-mail-ASAP option that smd does not provide right now (and that I really don't miss: since pulling is quite fast for the moment I'm not missing the while true script either...). Moreover OfflineIMAP is well tested, and smd is not beeing a *very* young software.
