If you do them from Outlook, don't expect to find them when you are away on that important business trip on gmail, cause they never went back there. Where as POP comes into the native Outlook database but can quickly get out of sync. IMAP is important when you have large amounts of folders and emails however it is a two edge sword, IMAP also gets to be much slower when you have large amounts of emails because it synchronizes email as a very long list, not a relational database. I have found that due to the sheer volume, Outlook halts synchronization every so often, and resumes the next time you load Outlook from Scratch. This can really slow down reads and sends until it has completed the synchronization. It would gradually synchronize with all the emails already on Gmail. If you have several GB of email (I had about 5 GB), for the first couple weeks of using Outlook 2010. To answer the question, the answer lies in the synchronization between Outlook and Gmail. This speeds up the syncronising of these folders.If you still need to access these emails, simply click on them as usual and it will download the email on the fly, as required. Then Click EDIT.On the page that opens, you'll see the following options:- Download Headers for Subscribed Folders- Download Complete Items including Attachments for Subscribed Folders- Use the custom behaviour defined below.I chose the custom option and enabled the attachments and complete items for my inbox, but then my organised folders which stored all my "archive" and discussion emails etc, I set to "Headers" which then only downloads the subject and first few lines of the email and NOT all the attachments etc.
So why take the risk and download your emails locally into one file (in the case of Outlook) and pray that it never gets corrupted?Regarding the original question, I found another solution which may help.Go to OPTIONS, Then ADVANCED, Then click the button which says "SEND & RECIEVE" and highlight the account which is causing you problems. The likes of Gmail and Hotmail and Yahoo etc, will always have a better backup system than us users.
First of all, I would ALWAYS recommend IMAP over POP3.
