  5. Click on the Checking Mail icon. Next to the Mail Protocol: radio buttons, choose either POP or IMAP. IMAP is recommended because this will save your e-mail on the mail server and allow it to be backed-up. POP is not recommended because your e-mail is saved on your local hard drive and is not backed-up.
