I have been using POP3 with most of my email accounts since the

automated fetching of new email fails silently. I only become aware of
the problem when I notice a lack of email and manually request new mail
and get the error messages. Fixing the problem requires a restart of
SeaMonkey.
I have never seen a similar problem with the accounts using IMAP. I can
access the accounts currently using POP3 via IMAP. Can I simply change
my server settings for those accounts from POP3 to IMAP, or would this
cause problems? IN case this makes a difference I am using 64 bit
2.53.2 on 64 bit linux mint 18.3 here.

I wanted to do the same several months ago and was told that it was not
possible, that I needed to create an IMAP account. My original post was
on 21 Nov 2019 in my timezone, the header is "pop3 vs imap".
