Hi, check out this: http://207.46.16.237/en-us/140/cc511390.aspx The difference is that pop3 loads mail to your computer where all changes e. g. folders are local to this computer. The imap let remain your mail on the server. Any action like creating a folder or deleting a message is executed remotely so you have always the same state on all clients. But that's only the short story, Wikipedia might help you for the rest :-) Greetings, Pierre Am 16.05.2011 um 20:40 schrieb Gail the U. S. Male: > Ok, is this fairly easy to do?
