IceWarp WebMail allows users to download messages also from other accounts from different servers than the default one. User can set these accounts in the Accounts section in Settings.
There is only one (default) account at the beginning and user can set a new one to download messages from other IMAP or POP mailboxes on any server.
After clicking Add button a new dialog with account properties appears.
