Sandi, Thanks for the vote, but be aware that this was only a nutshell description. IMAP and POP3 can also be used within different mobile devices and the description of their differences there becomes MUCH longer. This description also doesn't take into account any thoughts on actually setting them up. I just wanted to try to clear up some of the more peripheral (non-port related) confusion I was detecting over the recent threads. :O) Peace, Gman "The only dumb questions are the ones we fail to ask" ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sandi Beach" <sandib2@xxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, September 26, 2008 8:23 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: POP3 vs. IMAP > Thank you G.
