Only "InBox" Folder downloaded.. Can pop3 download Other folders too..?

Wow..!!! Pegasus was easy to connect to my online email account. Downloading "inbox" was easy too. Unfortunately folders like "Sent items", "Drafts' and other Folders did NOT automatically download. Can i download "Other" folders using pop3..?


Thanks in advance.. smile

No. Only new mail is available to POP3. Pegasus Mail keeps track of downloaded mail so it only retrieves what it sees as not yet downloaded. There are exceptions though. Gmail is one of them, internally keeping track of what has been downloaded via POP3.


An IMAP connection would provide access to the other folders.
