[PLUG] OT: Comparing POP3 and IMAP


Hi all-

for a class project, I am supposed to compare pop3 and IMAP.  We are
supposed to compare anything we can find out about them.  I was planning on
comparing speeds of sending/retrieving e-mail and how long it takes, throw
in a bit of statistics, etc.

What I wanted to ask the group was this -- how would you go about comparing
the two protocals.  Would you use a regular client and a stopwatch (which is
currently the fall-back plan), or, is there a mail client that can be
configured to use both pop3 and imap that has a self timing system.

thanks for your time and advice
-brad
