What is IMAP?

Calzada Media offers three methods for accessing mail accounts: POP3, IMAP and Webmail. By default, all mail accounts are IMAP enabled.

IMAP stands for Internet Message Access Protocol and is an international standard defining a method of accessing a mail account's messages without having to download them to your computer or device.

The advantage of IMAP is that you may access your mail account from multiple devices including Webmail, all of which should show the same messages. With IMAP, the messages remain on the Calzada servers with individual computers or devices synchronising with the mail servers.
