apple mail keeps trying to create a pop account for my email. NO! I want to know how to add an IMAP account. Who uses POP anyway???
Thanks Bob, I've been on that page. It has instructions for Apple Mail 7.0. I have Mail 13.4. it looks like after multiple deletions of the POP account Mail kept automatically setting up, I deleted and again re-installed the account and it mysteriously appeared as an IMAP account. Bewildering to say the least.
It’s xfinity. It is IMAP.
Change Server Settings in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
You can't set up an account as IMAP if your account is a POP account so make sure your email account is indeed an IMAP account.
Who is your eMail provider?
Bingo, server settings tab in mail preferences. Thanks, now I see how to do it.
how do you add an imap account for Heaven's sake???
