There are lots of web-based email service providers that you can resort to, but having an email with your own domain name will give you more credibility if you are running a business, for instance, not to mention that with web-based email services there are limits on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP protocols, you will not encounter such problems and you will be able to use any software program on your computer to check your email accounts, including Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even set up an email account on your mobile device. The difference between the two protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded to your personal computer, unless you configure the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Website Hosting
Each shared website hosting package that we offer will allow you to create email accounts with any domain name hosted in your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can select between the POP3 and the IMAP email delivery protocols, as we support both, so you can decide which one to rely on in accordance with your preference and the purpose of the email account – you may want to download all emails if you have a personal account and to store the messages on the email server – in case you have a business account, for example. The Email Manager, which is integrated into our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small-sized configuration file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email program – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even use your mobile phone to access your email messages and we have included an in-depth tutorial on how to perform this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server packages offer support for both email delivery protocols, so you can opt for either of them when you set up a mailbox with an email app. You can also download auto-configuration files for any account that you create from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, via which you manage the semi-dedicated server. Thus, you can add any email account to Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird without having to do anything manually. If you’re on the move all the time and you would like to view your emails using a smartphone, we’ve included detailed tutorials with screenshots revealing how to configure an email account on an iPhone or an Android phone. With our services, you can download the messages onto a single device or you can keep them on the email server, so as to be able to view your email messages from different devices and locations.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers
