Now, in order to use the program for managing the e-mail you have chosen, proceed by selecting the type of protocol you intend to use with the Fastweb e-mail box, choosing between IMAP e POP3.
Keep in mind that the IMAP protocol, which is the one I recommend you use, is more modern and allows the use of the same account on multiple devices at the same time, keeping messages synchronized (both incoming and outgoing) on all workstations while the POP3 protocol is older and requires the use of the e-mail service on a single device, in fact it deletes messages from remote servers as soon as they are downloaded to the PC (except for the activation of special backup functions).
Having made this important clarification, here are the "coordinates" to use both protocols in Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, Apple Mail and any other traditional mail client.
