IMAP stands for Internet Message Access Protocol, an internet standard protocol that email clients use to retrieve email messages from a mail server over a TCP/IP connection. In other words, if you read, delete, or reply to a message in your webmail client, your Gmail will still be showing all messages as unread. This means that the messages you read, delete, or reply to will not show up as such in your webmail client and in Gmail. POP3 does not coordinate with the server. POP3 downloads your emails to your local computer and allows you to access emails offline. POP3 stands for Post Office Protocol version 3, an internet standard protocol used by email clients to receive messages from a remote mail server to a local mail client. They each allow you to access your emails on one or multiple devices or locations.
To configure your Android phone to access webmail via Gmail, you will need to choose either POP3 or IMAP.
