Pop deleting messages from the server, is an option. You can unchecked it in the advance configuration. Godwin

Post Office Protocol (POP3) has a much simpler interface with your email server on the web than Interactive Mail Access Access Protocol (IMAP). POP3 just retreives everything in your Inbox on the server at regular intervals. By default, it then deletes the messages from the Invox on the server. The message is only on your PC at this point. IMAP synchronizes folders on your email server with the folders on your PC email client. The messages remain on the server until they are deleted. This is what makes IMAP better for use when reading email from different computers and devices. Each device is synchronized to have the latest, will not miss messages read on another device, or need to delete the same messages on different devices. These are problems you will likely encounter reading POP3 email on a computer and a smart phone. IMAP synchronizes several folders, like Drafts, Sent Mail, Junk Mail, and Trash. It might also synchronize other archive or labels in Gmail. If it is working slower than expected, perhaps it is synchronizing more folders or details than necessary for you. Most clients have ways, usually through using the Applications key on the folder, to set which folders should be synchronized, or hidden. It is also possible to indicate that for this folder, just synchronize the headers rather than the entire messages. Reducing the amount of work the client needs to perform to keep up with your email will make it snappier! *Don Marang* Vinux Package Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org <http://www.vinuxproject.org/> On 2/21/2012 12:01 PM, CM54 wrote: > Hello list, > > I've been working with Outlook 2010 and have set up a few email accounts. > One thing I'm noticing though, is that jaws is noticeably slower when > working with my imap emails as opposed to the ones I have set up as pop. > With the pop emails, when I press the delete button or arrow through > the list view of messages, Jaws works fine and as it always done, but > when working with the imap messages and again, deleting or arrowing > through them, Jaws gets sluggish and speech is delayed or I sometimes > have to just press the say line command to get Jaws to speak the next > message's information.
