Once you have setup a mail account as POP, you can’t change it. You will have to create a new mail account in order to use IMAP. As I said, once POP mail has been downloaded from the server, you can’t put it back. It is a one way deal.

I really didn't want it to but with my total lack of tech knowledge I didn't insist. My Iphone is set up for IMap. If I change the settings (a whole new challenge) in Outlook would that look after getting the mail onto the server? Or is what is already on the computer going to need to be moved manually? Thank you so much for the help!, Joy On Feb 8, 2020, at 11:25 AM, Brad Snyder <wb...@swbell.net <mailto:wb...@swbell.net>> wrote: This is correct. If you are setup to use IMAP with your mail provider on your iPhone,, all your mail boxes and their contents exist on your provider’s mail server, and will just show up when you setup your account in the Mac Apple Mail application. If you are setup using POP on your iPhone, this will not be the case. The old Outlook Express you were using does not support IMAP, and was most likely using a POP setup. - Brad - On Feb 8, 2020, at 10:04, 'Jason White' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com>> wrote: If the mail is on the server, you should simply be able to access it from whatever client software you choose, without having to export and import folders.

The Outlook I am running isn't Office 365 I'm not sure if that makes a difference. I use my email A Lot, however, I don't need it to do anything fancy. I just ended my twenty-one year relationship with Outlook Express on Tuesday , ... should tell you all you need to know about my email preferences to date. I've een (and am currently) using the email on my IPhone. It sounds as though Apple Mail maybe the simplest solution for me. Which raises the new question, how would I go about transferring the contents of my Outlook into the Apple Mail? Because I have a lot of contacts and reference information I want to keep!

It's effective for working with mail and the calendar. I haven't tried anything else with Outlook, though.

To put it mildly I'm just fumbling around at the moment. I was wondering, is there a guide for how to use Outlook (preferably using Voice Over)? And? Is Outlook really the most accessible email app? -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
