Configuring POP3 and IMAP in Outlook (Exchange 2013)

If you have a web mailbox with Cobweb, you may not be able to set up your account in Outlook as a full Exchange account. Instead, you can use our settings for IMAP or POP3.

If you are unsure which option is correct, we recommend to use IMAP. Note that this will keep a copy of your emails on our servers, which will use up your mailbox space. With POP3, the default setting is for the emails to be deleted from our server once downloaded by Outlook.

IMAP and POP3 will only sync email data, not calendar or contact data.
