+Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP), is a system by which your e-mail is kept on the server and does not ghet delivered to your computer. designed to support e-mail stored on a remote server. When you want to view, send or manage your messages, your e-mail program (client) connects to the CAL central e-mail server for access. Because your e-mail always remains on the server, you can easily retrieve it from virtually any location with Internet access. IMAP is useful if you travel frequently, access your e-mail at multiple locations, and/or use WebMail as your main mail client. There is a 1GB message limit for everyone who has an CAL e-mail account.
