IMAP keeps a copy of all your mail and folders on the server so you can
access all of it from multiple machines and webmail. POP doesn't. In
most cases POP moves the mail to your computer each time you get your
mail. IMAP costs more therefore.
But hosts like GoDaddy give you IMAP cheaper than Earthlink or ATT give
you POP.

Now, here I have an important question: what is the difference between POP and
MAPI... Eudora gives me this choice...
Will love to know.
Many thanks

Stop using POP!
