Beschreibung

The app doesn't really support the "download and manage emails locally" model that is used with POP3. This will most likely remain true for a while. To avoid user frustration, we should display a warning message when users try to set up a POP account and suggest they use IMAP (or switch to a different app).

We could display a message below the "protocol" widget when "POP3" is selected.
