IMAP
A standard protocol used by email clients to read messages from a server. By default it keeps a copy of messages on the server and supports multi-device synchronization of folder structures, making it the foundation for aggregated-inbox products.

GotEmail supports Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, and any IMAP account, and gathers them into the same window.
IMAP's IDLE push mechanism usually has latency at the second level, while polling mechanisms may cause delays in verification codes.
Email is built on open protocols such as SMTP, IMAP, and POP3, which do not belong to any single company.
The traditional IMAP protocol was born in 1986, and each synchronization requires multiple round-trip requests, making it less efficient in mobile network environments.
IMAP was first proposed in 1986, and the IMAP4 standard was released in 1996.
JMAP is a modern mail access protocol standardized by the IETF (RFC 8620/8621), based on HTTP and JSON, designed to replace the IMAP protocol that has existed for over 30 years, and natively supports push notifications, batch operations, and incremental synchronization.
