The emails retrieved as ‘Unread‘ via POP |
|
Multiple Client support: · Emails are migrated even if accessed by other clients. · The emails are synced in multiple clients with state maintenance · The emails available in the source mailbox is synced along with folder and state information. · The emails sent by other clients are synced via IMAP.
|
Only Single Client support: · If there are multiple client requests, the email is provided only to a single client. · The emails retrieved via POP already are not available for migration. · The emails sent by other clients will not be migrated, as it is not supported by POP Servers

The migration via POP is slower than IMAP Migration. |

Specific failures in migration can be tracked and corrected. |
