Comcast IMAP Settings - Errorsdoc’s diary

For quite a long time, POP (Post Office Protocol) email has been a persistent issue for me. Apple's email administration utilizes the IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) convention for email, as do numerous other email administrations. What's the large contrast among POP and IMAP? All things considered, in case you're associated with a POP record and erase messages that have come into your Mac, when you get onto your iOS gadgets you'll see that those erased messages are still there and you need to erase them once more! With IMAP, erase once, and an email is erased from all inboxes. There are some different advantages to Comcast IMAP settings, however for a great many people, the consistent need to cause various erasures in the event that they to have more than one gadget is the primary explanation they hate POP3 email servers.

The main POP3 account that despite everything I had starting a week ago was one from my ISP, Comcast. For reasons unknown, Comcast is by all accounts stuck during the 1990s and needs to hold those dumb POP3 accounts. All things considered, I discovered that they've been giving Comcast IMAP accounts on an ask-and-ye-will get premise, so I immediately pursued one. In the wake of getting notice that my IMAP account was live, I had a go at setting it up, just to run into issues. What I discovered is that you have to trick the Apple email customers for OS X and iOS 7 into accepting that you're NOT associating with a Comcast server at first, in such a case that you tell those customers you have a Comcast account, they choose to set your email customer up with - you got it - a POP3 account.
