Exactly what I wanted to know. From this explanation, I now know what options to use when configuring different email setups. It was a simple explanation for what the acronyms POP & IMAP stand for and how the email flows using each.

Obviously, IMAP is the choice one would choose in most multiple platform situations.

I didn't get one thing said here. I never used outlook, or express, or whatever else. I only use online email programs such as hotmail and gmail. It sucks, ignorance is a bliss. Can somebody plz help me understand?

I tried to understand but sorry. This is not helpful and nothing is clear and I had to stop after 30 secs. No offense, and good luck.
