Okay, Patrick, that raises a question. I stick to POP and always have, and my bride and I each have both iPhones and iPads which we regularly use to fetch our mail traffic when traveling, plus I have a laptop running Fedora which I sometimes haul along on trips so that I'll have a better keyboard. None of these devices have any difficulty retrieving mail from the POP server at the ISP that hosts our mail. Except that every so often, following one of the frequent iOS updates to the Pad, my POP-server password has disappeared and has to be reloaded :-) I should maybe add that my wife's address and mine are on the same domain, fdi.us, since I own that one. So what compelling reason would there be for us to change to IMAP? We danged sure don't do any "sharing" with anyone else,and being retired, foresee no chance that we ever would. So - IMAP - ??? Why?
