IMAP
• Best when you will be accessing your email from multiplelocations.• Allows you to create portable folders. These folders willappear in each email client you use to access your account.Your account will look the same at work, at home, and at yourfriend’s house.• Because your email messages are stored on the server,you must monitor your mailbox size.
