Q: creating a pop account
How do I create a pop email account? Each time I try to create a new email account it builds an IMAP account which i do not want. Somehow mysteriously I was able to choose between IMAP and POP at the top of a screen, but now this selection will not re appear for another account.
iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.4, deleting emails

My provider did not cease POP. I managed to open one POP account but the others turned up as IMAP. I did find or stumble upon a fix though. While on my 10th ttry to create a POP I misspelled my password. I was prompted to fix that and at that time the choice of POP or IMAP appeared at the top of the screen. Voila! I created it and I'm off to the races.
I just don't see why anyone would want to have their iphone emails deleted when they were picked up on thier desktop. How would that situation play out if a person was out of the area, and his wife picked up the email on the computer and Poof! the husband's iphone emails were disintegrated right before his eyes!
