Of course it's nice to have, but Python's imaplib doesn't yet support this...

Has this feature been added? Mailnag supports IMAP IDLE which also runs on Python.

Sorry, but I am not going to implement this, because according to the description:
"Unity Mail is in maintenance mode. No new features will be implemented."

Though if someone wants to add it, I will accept a merge proposal.
