Which protocol enables mail to be downloaded from an email server to a client and then deletes the email from the server?

• IMAP
• SMTP
• POP3
• HTTP

Explanation: With POP, mail is downloaded from the server to the client and then deleted on the server.
SMTP is used for sending or forwarding email.
Unlike POP, when a user connects via IMAP, copies of the messages are downloaded to the client application and the original messages are kept on the server until manually deleted.
HTTP is used for web traffic data and is considered insecure.
