My ISP is bellsouth (ATT). Do I have to do anything special with the ISPto convert my pop account to an IMAP account? Does it cost more?
I don't use Bell South, so I don't know. But, most ISPs support IMAP these days for the same price. This is because most Web mail servers (Gmail excepted) actually talk IMAP to the local mail server.
Is there anyway to put the messages that are currently in my mail folders back on the server? So they show up in my IMAP account.
Sure. Don't delete the POP account and when you get the IMAP working. Set up mailboxes on the IMAP server and drag the contents of the POP boxes over to the IMAP boxes. This is one of the nice things about IMAP.
You can even take messages between accounts on different machines just by dragging them to a mailbox on another account.
