Christopher,
Best answer I've ever read. Thank you.
I do not do 'phone/ipad' email, but I get it.
Think I will stay POP3 for now; well untilI can not.
IMAP reads to me as another layer (ISP) to deal with.
Thank you.

I set up a simple filter to copy everything coming into my imap account to a
saved folder. Easy to do, but why have to do this? With pop, you don't.
What is the advantage of iMap again?

So I can do POP and IMAP simultaneously with GMail? That might work.

Thane,
Have you considered getting your own domain and running incoming MX on an
old server? Spam filtering is a pain in the ass, but if you're worried
about space and about security, you can control both by putting your own
cheap server with disk space in play.
Frankly, if you setup a linux

If you're using one of the more popular email services (Gmail, Yahoo, etc)
or an Exchange account, the iPad setup pretty much takes care of that:

Otherwise, you can follow this guide to manually setup either a POP or IMAP

Correct. Imap uses server space. Also depending on mailbox size, speed

If you use the IMAP protocol, the email is stored on your ISP's mail
server. If you use POP then you download then delete. IMAP can cache
stuff locally, but overall all the messages are stored and synced with the
server. This allows you to delete messages from IMAP from your ipad and
have them
