Making your .Mac account more POP-like
Saturday, March 4th, 2006An anonymous poster on macOSXHints offers a convoluted tip
on how to make your .Mac IMAP account more POP-like.
I can’t conceive why one would want to do this, except perhaps to create a more secure environment for MailTags metadata.
But if you do want POP access for your .Mac account, then just follow the Apple technote
which describes how to change .Mac Mail from IMAP to POP.
