  (a) I use IMAP to read emails on email clients like Microsoft Outlook or Apple Mail: When you set up IMAP, you can choose whether the actions you take in your other mail client affect your emails in Gmail. For example, you can choose if deleting a email in Apple Mail also deletes it from Gmail. Make sure you’re using the recommended IMAP settings, and learn how actions sync in IMAP. Look for any settings that explain when emails are deleted.(b) I use a web app, extension, or add-on to read Gmail:Check your settings to make sure emails aren’t getting deleted or archived.
  1. Visit the Connected apps & sites page.

  (c) I use POP to read emails on email clients like Microsoft Outlook:
