B Correct answer
Explanation

IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) is the correct protocol for receiving emails. It allows email clients to access and manage email messages stored on a mail server. POP3 (A) is also for receiving but is an older protocol with limitations. SMTP (C) is for SENDING emails, not receiving. MIME (D) is a format specification, not a protocol.
