i provide services for users, including mail services with IMAP access. 
and i often help users of my services how to configure their client 
programs (which is often not my duty) for free.

but i don't help solving problems that people willingly create, FOR 
EXAMPLE by using Outlook for mail.

other examples are using internet explorer, others are installing some 
"magic firewalls" and "feeling secure" instead of just stopping all 
windows network services and then running few really needed (often none).

Other is using POP3 instead of IMAP, so no e-mails are kept on server side 
(and backed up by me daily) and then

but thats problems they are willingly creating, and chance to get some 
cash providing data recovery services etc...

people are allowed to be stupid. it's natural. no need to worry
