What is the difference between POP3 and Forwarding?

POP3 accounts will store your e-mail on our mail server. You will then be able to configure your mail client (e.g., Internet Explorer, Netscape, Eudora) to read your mail directly from our mail server.

Forwarding is when our mail server automatically forwards all e-mail received to your local ISP or existing e-mail address. These messages will not be stored on our servers.
