I use pop and there are some messages which require more then just a few lines. In those cases I would rather do it on my computer then on the touch screen of my iPhone. That having been said, I bought myself an Amazon Basics Bluetooth Keyboard so that I could take it with me rather then a computer when we're traveling in the motor home. I can type longer messages with the keyboard that's true however, I still would rather use my computer then my iPhone. Maybe it's because I'm just to use to doing email on my computer and not on my phone. ----- Original Message ----- From: Christopher Chaltain To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, July 05, 2013 9:57 AM Subject: PC/iPhone email questions [was "Re: Questions about several topics"]
I'm not sure what charter.net uses, but if you're using IMAP then your mail will be kept on a central server and all of your clients will sync with that server. This way you'll be able to access your messages from both your PC and your iPhone. Also, if you delete a message in one place or move it to a folder this will also be synced with the server, so you'll see the same change with each of your clients. If you're using POP then you probably want the iPhone configured to leave the messages on the server and configure your PC to download the messages from the server and then delete them from the server. You can also have a message left on the server unless you delete it or move it to a local folder. You'll just need to think a bit about how you want to handle your email and where you want your email stored permanently. BTW, I don't think consolidating unrelated questions into a single email is a good idea. I'd rather see two or three different messages, each on their own topic. This way you can use a better subject line, getting more people to notice it, and the discussions will be easier to find later with searches.
