IMAP

IMAP stands for Internet Message Access Protocol. IMAP permits multiple access to remote email message stores as if they were local. Email stored on an IMAP server can be manipulated from a desktop computer at home, a workstation at the office, or a notebook computer while traveling, without the need to transfer messages or files back and forth between these computers.

GIF versus JPEG

GIF versus JPEG. The Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) compression format is best used for images with solid areas of color, line drawings or logos, transparency effects, and animation. The Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) format is most suitable for high-quality images such as photographs and detailed artwork. JPEGs handle subtle shadings and color blends more efficiently than GIFs.
