 * I am very new for wordpress but this plugin is what I must have!!!
 * just finished install WP on AWS EC2 account and trying POSTIE but show only POP3
   on mail protocol. I searched little but found need IMAP server installed.
 * Do you know if it is possible install IMAP server on EC2 Account?
 * or if I want to use any hosting, which hosting service is suitable to use POSTIE?
   
   I tried very cheap bluehost but it doesn’t allowed.
 * I want to use gmail for posting
 * Thanks

 * You don’t need an IMAP server, you need a version of PHP with IMAP enabled.
