    POP = Post Office Protocol
    IMAP = Intenet Message Access Protocol

    Basically they're ways of having your email physically on your PC rather than on (for example) Hotmail's servers.

    Is it me or is the secure side of that link extremely slow?

    I've seen dialup responding quicker than this
