The Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) is a method of access to access to emails and electronic bulletin boards stored in the mail server system. The IMAP allows the user mail program to access the remote message memory as operating the native mail system. Save messages within the IMAP service system can be remotely operated by desktop computers without having to transfer messages or documents back and forth between your computer.
Create a distributed email with a variety of technical support and ways: POP (post office protocol), DMSP (hierarchical email system protocol) and IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol). Among them, the POP protocol creation is the earliest thing to understand; DMSP has better support for "non-connection" operation, but it is largely limited to single applications (PCMAIL); IMAP provides POP and DMSP extensions And provide three support methods for remote mail access: offline, online, and not connected.
