IMAP

IMAP settings (hostname, port, requires SSL) can easily be found online for popular email providers. For private email servers, like Microsoft Exchange Server, the sysadmin should be able to provide these settings.

IMAP must be enabled. Depending on the email provider, it may or may not be enabled by default.
