TROUBLESHOOT TIP : If you have trouble sending a message, it’s possible your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is blocking the default port 25. To fix this problem, take the following additional steps:
IMPORTANT TO KNOW :
IMAP email access coordinates between the server and your mail application. Messages that have been read/deleted/replied to will show up as such, both on the server and in the mail application. Also, this will leave copies of the emails on the server.
POP3 does not coordinate with the server. Messages marked as read/deleted/replied to in the mail application will not show up as such on the server. This means that future mail downloads with POP3 will show all messages as unread. Also, this will remove / delete the emails on the server as it is being downloaded onto your loal computer or device.
Outgoing mail is sent using SMTP.
