POP or IMAP?

[JTQ]

One of ours is "hotmail.com", as opposed to hotmail.co.uk.

No other of those we have with, live.co.uk, gmail, & protonmail collect remotely as much "Junk mail", with most near zero get through.

IMO it makes it unusable as a normal email provider. Only routinely visited just to clear the junk. Its existence was only to facilitate loading Windows.

I agree, I’m gradually migrating to Gmail, and Yahoo, both of which are virtually junk free. It’s my early morning job with a tea and biscuit, and the pooch alongside.

Another supposedly good email client is...

eM Client - Email Client and Calendar Software for Windows and Mac

This free email client should be installed on your desktop. eM Client is just great.

www.emclient.com

I think it's free for one account but for more you pay.

I thin k MS charges annually about £70 for 365? I have no objection to paying a one off, but not an annual subscription

Does one account allow the user to have their emails available and synchronised on their devices such as iPad, iPhone and MAC?

 

[Sam Vimes]

Not sure. I've only tried it once on my phone but thought it wasn't much better than Gmail so uninstalled it.

I don't see why you couldn't use it on more than one device with the same account.

It cold be argued that users have brought it upon themselves because they never do updates etc - but that is nothing new as it used to happen with W95!!

I use MS basic for the storage it's cheap and includes Outlook over multiple devices.

Would this not be suitable?

Apologies being a bit thick this morning, but I don't understand your post?
