 * Connection Security
-** STARTTLS: '''NO''', although we want to support it. {{bug|784816}} is the platform bug which must be resolved, {{bug|847032}} is the e-mail bug. (asuth, 2013/05/15)
+** STARTTLS: '''YES''', v1.1 onwards.  (StartTLS support was uplifted from v1.2 to v1.1 late in the v1.1 cycle.)
 * Mail Sync Process
-** IDLE-based push notifications: '''NO'''.  We do use IDLE, but only as a means of keeping the connection alive.  We want to support properly handling IDLE events. (asuth, 2013/05/15).
+** IDLE-based push notifications: '''NO'''.  In versions 1.0.1 and v1.1 we used IDLE as a means of keeping the connection alive but ignored any information provided to us.  In version 1.2 onward we no longer issue the IDLE (or NOP) commands.  We do intend to eventually use IDLE/NOTIFY to inform synchronization.
