Email Support in Google App Engine

Is there a mechanism to receive emails and/or establish IMAP connections in Google App Engine? I know that GAE provides limited support for the JavaMail API (i.e. only allow to send emails). Any workaround?

Not currently, but it is on the roadmap: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/roadmap.html

See http://www.smtp2web.com/ (made by a googler) for a temporary solution.

No, that is a limitation of the system (network calls are essentially limited to web requests).
