Thanks, Marco, but again the point is many people don’t have the bandwidth throughput as well as need your implying. For those that do, great…but for the rest of us people that have narrow pipes and work linear we need POP3 for what we do.

Regarding Google…it’s not a failsafe. That’s why they call it ‘archive’…and it’s a good thing to have in case emails are required to be made available in court.

Beats having to validate your own served email when the court can demand it from Google, lol.

IMAP is way better (and safer) than POP3. You do not have to synchronize anything on your laptop if you do not want to. Most email clients by default will delete any POP3 emails it successfully downloads, making the local copy the only copy.

Just because Gmail may autoarchive email for you doesn’t mean POP3 is better than IMAP, it just means Google decided to have a failsafe in place when people accidentally deleted their email by mistake by using POP3.

You are right about the time factor. Microsoft should let the people who want this configure it themselves and not burden them with these unneeded issues.

I am well, Belihna. How do you take your sausage? Mustard? Pickled shredded cabbage? Some take it with catsup, I don’t believe vinegar is common like on potatoes…but it’s possible.
