You can now choose whether you want to use POP or IMAP.
When using IMAP, your emails remain on the server after downloading them (beware ofoverfilled email boxes). Also when using IMAP if you create a folder in one mail client oreven webmail, those folders are available exactly like this on all other mail clients that havethis email account configured.
When using POP, emails are downloaded from the server and then deleted by default.
