If you check your email via POP and you want to receive your email as quickly as possible, you need to take advantage of the new feature we’ve just added.

Whenever Mailroom checks your email via POP, it has always left a copy of the email on your mail server as well. The problem with this is that everytime Mailroom checks your email it has to sort through all of the old email on your server to find the new ones. As the amount of email on your server builds up, it takes Mailroom longer to sort through all of it, and your email is received more slowly.

Now you can eliminate this problem by having Mailroom remove email from your server once it has been downloaded. It’s easy. Just go to your POP account setup (click on Preferences, then click on Mailroom, then click on Email Addresses). There, you can click on “Edit” for each of your POP accounts and check the box “Remove email from server after download” and press Save.

Once Mailroom has deleted your old email from the server, you should start receiving your email as quickly as every 5 minutes!
