Most email clients do not keep a copy of your email on their own servers. It is increasingly common though as it allows them to offer features which are impossible to do otherwise.
I don’t believe there is any need for them to keep a local copy of your mail for push notifications.
I didn’t know they stored local copies — had a very, VERY quick skim through their privacy policy on their website and couldn’t see any reference to that (sure it’s there but I didn’t see it).
I’m not a Spark user btw, was just following the conversation. I use plain ol’ Apple Mail.
IMAP has been around for what, 30 years now?
What features?
Manage your mail on multiple clients, as in native software that runs on a device. If your client always deletes upon fetching your mail, another device won’t see it.
You can leave the messages on the server and use IMAP to look at them from multiple devices in non-destructive ways.
If you must eventually move the mail out of the server then you can use IMAP devices in combination with one POP device that serves as the main mail archive, but only deletes the email from the server on a delay – say, 30 days. During those 30 days the IMAP clients continue to see the email and the POP client won't re-download the ones it already has. After 30 days a message can only be found on the device that uses POP.
Bei meiner Suche nach Radtouren in meiner Umgebung finde ich durchaus ein paar GPX Tracks, die ich nutzen wollte. Aber die Websuche bringt mich nur auf Seiten, die alles hinter einer Einlogg- und Eigene-App-Barriere verstecken.
Es gibt doch bestimmt irgendwelche nutzerzentrierte Seiten die es uns erlauben, GPX Track’s zu teilen, kategorisieren und herunterzuladen, so dass ich sie in der Kartensoftware meiner Wahl nutzen kann. Hat jemand einen Hinweis?
You can use IMAP in the same easy as POP. What you describe I do with IMAP alone.
Thing like send later. You can do it in a mail client but it requires the client to be running. It you implement it on the server you can guarantee that the email gets send on a specific day/time.
Spark offers collaboration on messages. So for example your team can add comments on an email.
Etc.
Outlook server providers have this feature, if it's really crucial.
...You can reply to an email. It's not a special feature, it's how email works.
If you mean to annotate something live together with other people, there are office tools for that. This is unrelated to email.
