Hello folks, wasn't sure where to put this but Ill try here first.
Heres the situation.
I like using Outlook on my desktop and like keeping records of all my emails in the archive file on my local PC. Hence I used POP3 to download my emails.
I also accessed my emails from my iPad, also via POP3, and somehow there was a settings in the Virgin Media account that allowed me to delete emails from my iPad which then would not be present on the server.
I also would be able to leave those emails which I wanted so that when I get to my desktop and downloaded my emails, it would end up on my local archive file and no longer be present the next time I accessed the emails from iPad.
Now VM have started using the Google platform and things have changed...
So I'm not sure if what I had before is now even remotely possible.
I understand IMAP is an option but I don't want to go down this route on my desktop.
I hope Ive conveyed my point across, I hope there is a way around this. Many thanks.
