Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -First of all, IMAP allows you to access, organize, read, and sort your email messages without having to download them first. This creates a faster email experience, as well as a more flexible one. You don’t have to worry about which device you are using, because your email will always be synced to the server.

Detailed explanation-2: -While the POP3 protocol assumes that your email is being accessed only from one application, IMAP allows simultaneous access by multiple clients. This is why IMAP is more suitable for you, if you’re going to access your email from different locations or if your messages are managed by multiple users.

Detailed explanation-3: -POP3 only allows a single device at a time to access the emails. IMAP allows multiple devices at a time to access and read the available mails. A user cannot update or create emails on the mail server by using the POP3 protocol. You can use the IMAP protocol for updating or creating emails.
