Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -POP3 vs IMAP POP3 downloads the email from a server to a single computer, then deletes the email from the server. On the other hand, IMAP stores the message on a server and synchronizes the message across multiple devices.
Detailed explanation-3: -IMAP allows multiple clients to access the same mailbox, while keeping the email messages available on the server for later access via webmail. POP3 downloads the messages, while removing the messages from the server. The emails are then no longer accessible via webmail or a mail program.
