RCS ONLY SUPPORTS WEBMAIL. However there may instances when you may require using a POP3 Account.
Example 1 - The Backing Up of your Emails and or Contacts. If your email and or your contacts are of importance to you, then you should consider setting a POP3 account on your computer. This would allow for the downloading of your messages and contact names onto your computer locally and then you can transfer these items to an external device such as a thumb drive. RCS is not responsible for your email or contact list backups.
Example 2 - The amount of disk allocated on our server for your account is limited to a certain amount. If this amount is reached, email sent to you will then be bounced back to the sender as undeliverable. A work around for this would be to setup a POP3 account on your computer and this would increase your mailbox size by at least 5 times as the webmail would allow.
