Folder Behavior With a Direct Connection to an E-mail

Server

The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you
are using POP3 or IMAP4.

If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you

created, the link is broken between the messages on the phone and
their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail
server will see that the messages are missing from the phone and
delete them. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a
message, but it also means that you no longer have access to
messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the
phone.

If you use IMAP4, the folders you created and the e-mail messages you

moved are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available
to you anytime you connect to your mail server. This synchronization of
folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server; create new
folders or rename/delete folders when connected.
