Well imho, used imap instead of pop. It leaves all the messages of your mail-server, instead of copying to your mail client.
I agree, imap is the way to go, especially if you get mail on multiple computers.
NOTE: with T-bird 3.X you have to configure it NOT to (1) 'sync' your imap folders and NOT (2) 'store messages on local computer'. Otherwise tbird 3 will behave like pop set to leave messages on server.
I do not quite understand: You read the messages on the server with imap, and they stay there, until i remotely delete them? pop3 you can choose to leave the messages on the server, or when you change these the will be deleted on the server, but stay resistant residing somwhere unseen in TB. What is the real advantage(s) in imap above pop3? -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (M9.) (Now or never...)
