Now I only use email when I have to, I do not regard it as a reliable method of communication, but from the little I know about pop3 and imap.........On general principle I do not like to store my own material on a system outside of my control. I also ONLY use email from a single system and have absolutely NO DESIRE for ANY kind of remote access of email. I still have email I received from 10 years ago, it makes interesting reading on what I was up to then.
It is possible to use IMAP in exactly the same way you use POP. There is no requirement that keep the emails on the server after you have downloaded them. -- Brian May <brian@linuxpenguins.xyz> https://linuxpenguins.xyz/brian/
