IF you want to move from pop to imap or imap to pop, you must completely turn off and delete the one before switching to the other. You are given the choice only upon setting up the new account. For example, say you want to switch from pop to imap, as I did. First, turn off the pop account. Next, completely delete it from your Mac. Now, set up a brand new account and set it for imap. it is not possible to switch an account from one account type to another.
