Download Headers Only option for POP account POP accounts are usually configured to download only the headers (including the sender and the subject of the e-mail) from the mail server when the user has a slow Internet connection.Īnother use case would be when users want to immediately have access through a large batch of messages and not having to wait for the server to also download the email bodies and attachments.Ĭonfiguring a POP account to only download email headers will drastically reduce the time needed to download all emails from the server and greatly speeds up email browsing. Outlook will also delete three or more emails from their inboxes for accounts configured to retrieve mails from a POP (Post Office Protocol) account with Download Headers Only.
