The IMAP protocol differs from the POP3 protocol is that the IMAP doesnt require the user to download all the emails to the PC to check for new emails. It is also much easier to distinguish between read and unread emails while using the IMAP as oppose to the POP3. Some other difference is the IMAP is that you can create multiple email accounts from the PC where as the POP3 requires new email accounts to be created on the server. Another difference is that with IMAP emails can be deleted directly through the server where as the POP3 emails are deleted on the PC.
