HOW TO CONNECT OUTLOOK ACCOUNT

I. What is IMAP and how to configure it in OUTLOOK

The IMAP protocol (Internet Message Access Protocol) is a communication standard for resolving e-mail from an e-mail server to an e-mail client. IMAP allows users to read, delete, and organize their mail directly on the server, rather than downloading and storing messages on their computer. This makes IMAP a good choice for users who want to access their email from more than one computer or email client.
