Visual guide for this topic — follow the steps below.

IMAP keeps email on the server and syncs folders between devices. POP often downloads messages locally and can delete them from the server.

Which one do you choose?

Check each step carefully and verify the result before continuing.
  • IMAP: smartphones + laptop + webmail at the same time — recommended.
  • POP: only if you deliberately archive locally and want to keep the server empty.

Note: With POP you risk mail being 'lost' on other devices if deletion from the server is enabled.
