Relation of Email and Tcp/Ip
Your email program uses different TCP/IP
protocols:

It sends your emails using SMTP.
It can download your emails from an email
server using POP.
It can connect to an email server using IMAP.

TCP/IP
SURPRISE TIME>>>
TCP/IP
TCP/IP defines how your computer
communicates with other
computers.
Under This connection uses the following items, click
either Internet Protocol Version 4
(TCP/IPv4) or Internet Protocol Version 6
(TCP/IPv6), and then click Properties.









POP - Post Office Protocol
POP - Post Office Protocol
The POP protocol is used by email programs
(like Microsoft Outlook) to retrieve emails
from an email server.
If your email program uses POP, all your
emails are downloaded to your email program
(also called email client), each time it connects
to your email server




SMTP - Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
The SMTP protocol is used for the transmission of e-
mails. SMTP takes care of sending your email to
another computer.
Normally your email is sent to an email server (SMTP
server), and then to another server or servers, and
finally to its destination.
SMTP can only transmit pure text. It cannot transmit
binary data like pictures, sounds or movies.
SMTP uses the MIME protocol to send binary data
across TCP/IP networks. The MIME protocol converts
binary data to pure text.

IMAP - Internet Message Access
Protocol

The IMAP protocol is used by email programs
(like Microsoft Outlook) just like the POP
protocol.
The main difference between the IMAP protocol
and the POP protocol is that the IMAP protocol
will not automatically download all your emails
each time your email program connects to your
email server.
