IMAP Mail Services
The IMAP mail protocol is used essentially the same manner as the POP
protocol. The main difference is that IMAP stores the mailbox entirely
on the mail server whereas POP stores the mail on the client machine
(e.g. A Eudora or Netscape mail box on your hard disk). This feature
makes IMAP useful for those who read mail at more than one machine and
would like to keep the same mailbox state information with them where
ever they go.
