PO P3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you

created, the link is broken between the messages on the device

and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect,

the mail server will see that the messages are missing from the

device Inbox and delete them from the server. This prevents you

from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that

you will no longer have access to messages that you move to

folders created from anywhere except the device.

• If you select IMAP4IMAP4

IMA P4, the folders you create and the e-mail

messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore,

messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail

mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when
