From this video I infer that IMAP is like my 'hotmail' account [since email stays on server] versus POP3 is like my Outlook Express[since email is removed from server]- correct? I find many of your videos very useful so right on! Danny Chris,

I am a little too adventurous and I end up formatting the C drive frequently. My C drive is on the primary hard drive and I have another partitioned hard drive where I keep "the good stuff". After I reinstall XP Pro, I go to a folder in the partition I call Active. The folder is called 4. E-Mail, 2. Save before Format. I save some E-Mails there that I consider important. Before I turn on the DSL modem, I set up my E-Mail accounts (2). I always have the E-Mail set up to download new mail only when I click on Send/Receive. I also go to Tools - Accounts and click on Properties of both Accounts - then advanced, and toward the bottom under delivery I check "leave a copy on the Server". The last time I formatted the C drive and reinstalled XP, when I clicked on Send/Receive, I got over 1 thousand E-Mails. By the way I am not sure what URL actually is. Could it be: 192.168.1.64 I use Pop 3 and what you say is not true. I am a little too adventurous and I end up formatting the C drive frequently.

I don't plan on accessing my personal email anywhere but home. IMAP for business usage. The benefits for a business is that you can access the same information across any system you use (PIM/PDA, Blackberry, Home CPU and Work CPU) POP3 for home account.
