   If you have to change the server setting for imap, you may be warned that some local data will be removed. This will only involve locally cached data most of which will be recreated when you next access the account, but you may lose some local data such as message status information or labels. Respond OK.

11. Click on OK to save settings.
12. Go to Tools menu and select Mailboxes to return to normal view.

*If you are using email at home and use your internet service provider's SMTP/outgoing server, you may continue to use it.

POP users who use the option "Leave mail on server" may get mail duplicates of email the first time downloading due to the conversion.
