Prodigy.net Account Access from an Email program using IMAP
Prodigy.net supports both IMAP and POP3 which makes it accessible through email email programs like outlook 365 etc which extends the scale of its usage and provides a better experience for the customer
It might be the first time that you might have across terms like “IMAP” and “POP3”, lets try and understand what they mean
IMAP vs POP3 : Difference
IMAP and POP3 are two different ways to set up a mail address in a client application with the usage of IMAP being high lets see why
Even though POP3 & IMAP both allow you to connect to the mail server and access your emails using a client application, they still differ in that IMAP stores messages on the server rather than on a local device like a computer. POP3 mail, on the other hand, will attempt to establish a connection and store messages locally, whether on your computer or mobile. Therefore suppose you use multiple devices which is quite prominent lately, with the help of IMAP you can easily synchronise your data between the number of devices making it more practical in the said condition.
