Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

Which email protocol deletes the email from the mail server once you have downloaded it?

A	SMTP
B	POP3
C	TCP
D	IMAP

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, POP3 offers a means of downloading email from a server to the client so the recipient can view the email offline. POP3 can be thought of as a “store-and-forward” service. Once the email is on the client, POP3 then deletes it from the server.

Detailed explanation-2: -POP3 is an older protocol that was originally designed to be used on only one computer. Unlike modern protocols that use two-way synchronization, POP3 only supports one-way email synchronization, only allowing users to download emails from a server to a client.

Detailed explanation-3: -POP, or Post Office Protocol, is accessed from a remote server, but then all messages are downloaded directly and stored to your device and then deleted from the server. By deleting email copies on the server, storage usage stays lower.

Detailed explanation-4: -Yes, the IMAP sync deleted messages from server. It means, if you delete a message, it will get removed from the server. This article will guide you about IMAP synchronization.
