There are plenty of web-based mail service providers that you can resort to, but using an email address with your very own personal domain will give you more credibility if you are running a company, for instance, not to mention that with web-based email services there are limitations on the maximum size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that supports the IMAP and POP3 protocols, you won’t encounter such problems and you’ll be able to use any program on your personal computer to check your emails, including Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even set up a mailbox on your phone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the email server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded onto your PC, unless you configure the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Web Hosting

If you get a Linux web hosting through our company, you’ll be able to create email accounts with any domain name hosted under your account and to set them up with any email software application. During the setup process, you can pick POP3 or IMAP as we support the two email delivery protocols, so it will depend on you if all emails will be downloaded locally at your end or if they will stay on the server. With us, you can even set up a mailbox on your smartphone irrespective of its Operating System and we have included comprehensive tutorials on how to do that. To save time, you can also download and run our auto-config files to set up an email account in Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird automatically. With our shared hosting plans, you can pick a desired device and app to examine your emails.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can select between the IMAP and the POP3 protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server account with our company. We offer support for both of them, so you can decide what to do with your email messages – to download them on your PC or to leave them on the mail server and to check them from different devices. The latter option will also permit different people to access the exact same mailbox – in case you’re hosting a corporate site on our servers, for example. You can find auto-config files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will allow you to set up everything automatically in a client of your choice – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail, so you will not have to configure anything manually. In case you’ve got a smartphone, you can set up any email account just as easily – simply check out our in-depth tutorials for iPhone and Android.
