Thank you so much, Mujtava. I'll have a look at it and see if it's worth 
setting it up.

Best wishes,

Joan.

Dear Joan,

Below is a link that will tell you all that you need to know about IMAP and 
it's advantages. It's a option that is given to the user while setting up 
his/her email client like Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Microsoft Outlook etc.

Hi, Mujtava,

What is an Imap account? I know everyone else will know this but I'm really not 
a techie. Is this a BT Internet function, or a GPS thing?

I do worry about leaving all that deleted mail on the web because I remember 
years ago when it all came flooding onto my computer for some reason.

Best wishes,

Joan.

I manage my gmail with Outlook 2007 using the POP3 setup. And it's best for me 
to stick to managing my email that way. Once in a month I log on to the website 
and empty my SPAM folder and other junk emails from the inbox. This is because 
when you delete an email in outlook it does not delete it from the webmail 
account. You can have the cake and eat it too only if you agree to pay for an 
IMAP email setup. In this kind of setup your webmail account and outlook client 
are in sync and if you delete an email in outlook, the same will happen in your 
webmail.

I had trouble with Gmail on my Windows Live Mail, there were always problems 
with downloading the message and the settings.  The thing with Yahoo is that it 
was fine the way it was up till last month and now it is really a mess.

Friend, Gmail is none the better. Their HTML view is our only hope. Despite 
switching to this view, you can't do all the stuff the sighted folks can. 
Like for example, you want to select a bunch of emails from your inbox and 
delete them, you can't. All you can do is check the boxes for each mail and get 
lost on what to do with them.

I understand all these email services are putting their best foot forward 
towards accessibility, but what I fail to understand is that we are in 2013 and 
I think it should have already happened. I get really tired educating companies 
like linkedin, Google, Yahoo, Facebook etc. on basic accessibility design of 
their websites. I mean they should get it faster right?
