It should do so, yes. It's also possible (depending on how your
server handles it) that messages that you move to an IMAP folder
(other than the inbox) won't be delivered to your POP account.
Logically, that makes sense. If you delete it off the server, then it's
not there when your POP device polls the server and asks to download
messages.
* If I read it on IMAP will it be marked read when POP downloaded
or not or would It also have to be IMAP downloaded to see this.
POP has no concept of "read" messages. So no, even if you have
already read the message via IMAP, it would be downloaded again as
"unread" via POP. If you want to preserve read status and other
flags, you have to use IMAP in both machines.
Here, too, the logic holds up. If the message is present on the server,
then a POP device that polls for mail will retrieve it, and having done
so, it will normally keep its own copy and delete the copy on the
server. However, if you look at
Edit | Mail & Newsgroup Settings | (Account Name) | Server Settings
you'll see these options:
Server Settings:
...
[ ] Leave messages on server
[ ] For at most nn days
[ ] Until I delete them
If these features work (I haven't tested them), you should be able to
download messages with a POP device while leaving them on the server
("until I delete them"). If that's what you want, of course.
