I don't even need to keep the emails as I have them all on a different pc where I will continue to use POP. On this new set up I am only interested in using IMAP and thought there is way to change the setting so that in future for these email accounts IMAP is used instead of Pop. Basically you say I need to set up the accounts fresh as IMAP accounts - that's fine, just will take a bit longer. -- Tom using TheBat! 8.6 on XP Current version is 8.0.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: Changing from POP to Imap
Hello Tom, it is no problem to have a POP and an IMAP account for the same address. The way to migrate your emails from POP to IMAP is as follows: - create the IMAP account - move or copy the emails you want to keep to the new account - delete the old account or keep it, no problem. I have several addresses with POP and IMAP and they are all working. Kind regards Feli Am 21.

Changing from POP to Imap
Hello Everyone, what is the procedure to change a pop account to imap? Seems such a basic issue but I am afraid I can't work it out. Under Account Properties/Transport I can see the settings for servers and ports and Pop is shown as existing. I don't see anything there that would allow me to untick this or use IMAP instead. Do I need to delete the account and recreate it? -- Best regards, Tom using TheBat! 8.6 on Win 7Prof, 64bit Current version is 8.0.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
