Q: I want to set up a POP3 email account but in all the help I have found so far I should get the option to choose IMAP or POP.  This doesn't appear and I need POP3 because I don't want anything deleted from the mail server.  I have an iPhone 5s and iOS 7

How do I set up a POP3 email account on my iPhone5s, using iOS 7.1.1.  All the help I have found tells me to select IMAP or POP but I am not given the choice.  I need to be able to set 'Don't delete from mail server' which can't be done in IMAP.

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1.1
