WHAT IS POP?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Setting up a POP (Post Office Protocol) email account is similar to how you would regularly link a webmail account to your application, only with just a few added steps. POP allows you to access your emails, and gives you the option to download them onto a single device. However, once downloaded, it is deleted from the server and is inaccessible from other devices.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

IMAP, on the other hand, allows you to access your email whether you are on your mobile, or your computer. If you want to set up an IMAP email account on your Apple Mail instead, go here<\/span><\/a>. If you have not created an email account yet, click here to get started<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
