POP downloads messages from the server and deletes them from the server. IMAP leaves messages on the server.
POP does not leave a copy of the message on the server.
Emails are saved on servers, but they can also be backed up on local devices. Emails can be deleted from servers, but they can also be recovered.
If you have an email account with a POP3 server, you can access your old emails by downloading them to your computer. First, open your email client and create a new folder on your desktop to store the emails. Then, in the email client, enter the address of the POP3 server and your login credentials. The client will then download all of your old emails to the new folder on your desktop.
Deleting an email does not remove it from the server. The email is still stored on the server, but it is hidden from view in your inbox. To completely delete an email from the server, you must delete it from your trash can.
If you change your email account from POP3 to IMAP, your messages will be stored on the email server instead of your computer. This means that you can access your messages from any computer or device with an internet connection.
There is no one definitive answer to this question. IMAP is better for accessing your email from multiple devices, while POP3 is better for downloading your email to a single device.

POP3 is a protocol for retrieving e-mail from a remote server. It does not sync folders.
Email servers store emails in either a PST or an OST file. The PST file is a personal storage table file that stores all of the user’s email messages, contacts, and other items. The OST file is an offline storage table file that is used to store a copy of the user’s mailbox on the server.
The length of time that emails are kept varies depending on the email provider. However, most providers will keep deleted emails for a certain amount of time before deleting them permanently.
Emails will be kept in the user’s mailbox. The mailbox is a storage location where messages are kept until they are deleted or moved.
Outlook will delete emails from the server after they have been downloaded to the user’s computer. This can be configured in Outlook’s settings.
