   IMAP is the latest protocol used to retrieve messages from a server. By using this, you can access your full email history using any other device.
   
   POP, on the other hand, is an older model of communication. It downloads messages and deletes them from the server. What is great about this protocol is that you do not consume that much online disk space.
