Re: [iPad] How email has changed with smart devices

 

I just went inot soem other folders on my phone, it had to download them. Then I went inot an email and it had to load it

The download is the header, which is the title bar, Sender, etc.
The Loading is the email content, i.e. the body of words

If I chose one with an attachment it wiould have to laod the attachment from the Yahoo server

In conclusion the emails and attachments etc do not exist on the iOS device, the base information of them does IF it has been accessed previously. Ther are living physically at the mail server, in my case Yahoo. My iPhone reads them from there.

Now,. I use the built in iOS app for Yahoo, has anyone here configured POP on theirs manually?

Well, my emails and attachments are stored on my iPad.

That isnt a client in the normal sense of the word. My emails, and any attachments on them are not stored on my iOS devices AFAIK

So they act as webmail, reading and working from, in my case, the Yahoo servers where my email is stored.

Does that mean you don't use the built in email client that is part of iOS?  I think it's one on of its features.

Many years ago I used Outlook but my computer crashed and I lost all my mail which is one reason why I switched to webmail.  Another reason is I switched my ISP provider so in that case I even lost my email address.  Two lessons learned the hard way.

I, too, dislike webmail. Eudora is nearly perfect, but it's become unfashionable, and there's no longer a deep-pocketed developer.
