depending on who provides emailed to you
your ISP for example you may have two
different kinds
of incoming mail servers and in most
cases
both kinds of email servers are
available to you
10 minutes call pop or pop 3
and it stands for post office protocol
the other ones call
I'm which stands for internet message
access protocol
I'm a working slyly different ways
and it really pains on on how you
connect to the internet
I or how you check your email and it
also depends
on the capabilities or the Services that
our offer you by your ISP
personally and this is just my own
personal taste
I like pop better I'll explain why in
the case of up post office protocol mail
server
when somebody sends an email to you the
two that we have an email here somebody
sends over
and your rights to the incoming mail
server in the case of a pop server
when you connect to the Internet
to check your email the pop server
will transfer the whole message over to
you
and what I mean by the whole message
I mean behaving and the message part the
hair
is piece of information like beatrice
who sent it
the address if we was addressed to that
the body was sent
the IP address of the person who sent it
a bunch of other pieces of information
that identify the message
and then the other big chunk of a
message
it's the actual contents of the message
now in this process
of using a pop server and transferring
the whole message
over that means that you have a copy of
the whole message
on your computer on your email client in
most cases
that message gets deleted from the pop
server
now let me explain
for this
a slightly different diagram in the case
of I'm ap
I have I description here of folders
I'm explain how it works let's say that
somebody sends you
a message let's say that somebody sends
you a message
so the message gets retain it sent over
to you
and the inner rhymes to the I'm ap mail
server
now when you are
getting and your mail checks for new
mail
using I'm ap in most cases
what happens is the following letter you
got your new message
you're checking your email what the i'm
absolutely will do
you see will just transfer the Heather
over to you
now what's the cool thing about this
while the cool thing about this is the
review have
a lot of emails you actually don't need
to transfer all of that data just need
to transfer
pieces of information that are key to
that message for example who it came
from
when he was and and the subject of the
message
so you get
hundreds and hundreds of messages and
you don't need to read all the messages
all at once
you're actually not downloading that
much data so let's say that you do find
a message
that that you want to read when you
double click on the message
in the mail application to read the
contents of the message
at that point then a copy
of the actual message get sent over to
you
