Contact the email provider. Only they can tell you if they support IMAP accounts. Not all providers do, but nowadays, most do. They will provide you with the information you need.


If you are not interested in saving the mail you currently have on the device, you can delete the accounts, then add them back individually. If they are IMAP supported, they should add back as IMAP accounts. Make sure you are well aware of the username and passwords for those accounts before deleting them.
