IMAP support?

Would be great if you could fetch mail and convert to tickets with IMAP fetching. Maybe assign ticket to users and specfici categories based on the folder? (check for mail in folders matching username then categories?) Would be a great option for people want to use piping but need more functionality in their replies (multiple recipients and CC, embed images etc).
I've just set up a local non-internet email account (hmailserver) in my outlook as an IMAP and have hesk checking it via pop3. It's great because I can drag or copy&paste an email into that IMAP inbox and hesk will pick it up and delete it. Easier tracking and lots of time saved creating tickets. It's transparent to the user requesting support. The only bummer is with 4-5 hesk users it could get messy trying to find your tickets in the list of unassigned tickets.
