IMAP How To?

[ThunderHostingDotCom]

How do we utilize the IMAP mail function? Is it the same as pop3 IE: mail.DOMAIN.com? Any info or instructions are appreciated!

[dalem]

in your email client when setting up a email account select IMAP instead of pop3

That's it? After that we can use any of the 3 webmail apps to access our email & see the IMAP folders? I thought there would be more to it. Thanks for the help.

IMAP is not webmail (neo mail does not magicly apear in your email client)

So is there any way to check your IMAP email via a browser from a remote location?

[dalem]

If you ar going to do via browser the why not just use webmail

Because the folders you create & the emails you send in webmail can not be downloaded to Outlook.

I think u can copy the files. I use IMAP, configured at mai mail client, and I see the directory INBOX.Sent ( wich is use by squiremail ) and also I have Sent Items ( wich is used by Outlook ). Also I can check that mail into webmail. ( I have acces to both sent items ). And if u want to copy localy just ctrl+a and right klik copy to folder.
I hope u will understand what I want to say. (sorry for my bad english)
