Awaiting Email Confirmation

I'm going to check if Comcast offers IMAP. It seems IMAP is much better than POP and is the way to go. Am I right about this?
The only thing that concerned me is after some research on Google it was mentioned that IMAP requires a constant connection to the server, almost like you're working on your email on the server directly. I'm not sure if I read this right but my only concern is with the iPhone at times I'm in areas without a strong signal. If you lose the signal does it lose the email or does it just means it needs that when moving between different folders, sending, receiving, etc?
