With IMAP, you can get your emails received in your erxes inbox and can reply directly from your inbox with your team members.
Internet Message Access Protocol, IMAP, is a two-way incoming mail protocol that only downloads email headers instead of its entire content. The two communication allows the protocol to syncs whatever changes are made on the email client to the server.
