Most internet services provide email that can be accessed from any
computer, anywhere, called webmail.
I think it's also safe to say that you have to go into your email
services settings and change it to IMAP. It would not be IMAP by default.
It is also my understanding that IMAP sort of synchronizes (sync)the
webmail with your email client on your computer while POP simply
downloads the email.
I'm sure if I am wrong about any of the above, others will correct me.
I'm still old fashioned and don't use this stuff much, but I try to
understand what it does.

send some to the trash they will remain there

But in my Eudora at home I have a internet
server (Terra) and Eudora gets the mail and
tehy don´t remain on the server. POP?
