This definition is from the ComputerUser.com High-Tech tramadol online Dictionary : Inter tramadol online et Message Access Protocol. A protocol that allows a user to perform certain electron tramadol online c mail functions on a remote server rather than on a local computer. Through IMAP the tramadol online user can create, delete, or rename mailboxes; get new messages; delete messages; and tramadol online erform search functions on mail. A separate protocol is required for sending mail. A tramadol online so called Internet Mail Access Protocol. 2.2. IMAP vs. POP IMAP allows the user to tramadol online ead email from many different locations and accounts because email folders are stored tramadol online on the server, locally, at the home or the office, for instance. Even saved and read tramadol online essages are stored on the IMAP server. POP only stores new unread messages on the se tramadol online ver, and the read and saved messages are stored locally. To force POP to not delete e tramadol online ail once it has been read can create many copies of the same email, creating a waste tramadol online f space and confusion. However, IMAP is usually more complicated to set up. If you on tramadol online y have one email account, POP is most likely your best choice. If you want to access more than one account, from different locations, IMAP will probably serve you most efficiently. 2.3. Cyrus IMAP vs. Washington IMAP Cyrus has its own mailbox database which is standalone and increases performance, whereas Washington uses the stanard UNIX mailbox format, which was designed for a smaller set of users. Washington is portable to more UNIX and non-UNIX systems than Cyrus. The main difference is that with Cyrus, you don't have to add new users to your linux box (i.e. in /etc/passwd) to add new mail users, and with Washington, you do. 3. Obtaining the Files 3.1.
