What is the difference between POP3 and Forwarding?

POP3 is where you store your e-mail on our mail server. You then configure your mail client (for example - Internet Explorer, Netscape, Eudora) to read your mail directly from our mail server.

Forwarding is when our mail server forwards e-mail to your local ISP or e-mail address instead of storing it. When we set up your account, all of your e-mail is forwarded to the e-mail address you supplied to us.
