Mobile Devices

With the Subscription version of Gaggle, users can use POP or IMAP to access their email from their mobile phone or device.

IMAP vs POP: Which one should you choose?

IMAP Advantages

Email is stored on the server, along with a record of whether a message has been read, replied to, or deleted.

Allows for the synchronizing of folders between Gaggle and the mail client.

POP Advantages

Only new email will be received from the server.

Storage is conserved since email is not stored on the server, unless it has been set up by the user to leave a copy on the server. This can be set to automatically remove the message after a certain number of days.

There is not a maximum size for the mailbox. It will only be limited to the file/storage space of the device.
