There’re lots of web-based email providers that you can use, but using an email account with your very own personal domain name will give you more credibility if you have 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 send or receive. In case you use an email service that supports the IMAP and POP3 email delivery protocols, you won’t encounter such problems and you’ll be able to use any program on your computer to check your email accounts, including Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even set up a mailbox on your smartphone. 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 on your PC, unless you configure the program in such a way as to store a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Hosting
With a Linux shared hosting package from our company, you’ll be able to use any device and any email software app to see your email messages. We support the IMAP and POP3 email delivery protocols, so you can pick either one of them when you set up a mailbox based on your personal preference. To make things simpler, you can download a small configuration file from your Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each email account that you set up. You can easily set up the latter with your chosen application by simply clicking on that file. This option represents an alternative to our webmail and the two services go hand in hand, so if you create a folder in Outlook, for instance, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the particular mailbox is set up.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated server packages support both email delivery protocols, so you can select either of them when you set up a mailbox with an email software app. You can also download auto-configuration files for any mailbox that you create from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, via which you manage your semi-dedicated server. In this way, you can add any email account to Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail without the need to do anything manually. In case you’re non-stop on the move and you would like to access your email messages using a smartphone, we have included exhaustive tutorials with screenshots clarifying how to set up an email account on an iPhone or an Android phone. With our semi-dedicated server packages, you can download the emails onto one single device or you can leave them on the server, so as to be able to access your email messages from multiple devices and locations.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Hosting
If you get a virtual private server through our company, you will be able to create an unlimited number of email accounts with any domain hosted on the VPS and to set them up with any email client. This is valid irrespective of the hosting Control Panel that you will choose during the signup process, as we will set up IMAP and POP3 mail servers on the VPS in any case. You’ll be able to select either option and, to make everything even simpler, you will be able to download auto-config files for Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail – if you get the server with cPanel or with our custom-created Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You can configure email accounts on any device without any limits, even on your phone – if you travel a lot and you’d like to remain in touch with pals and associates. With our services, you can decide whether to download the email messages or to keep them on the server based on what you’ll use the email accounts for and on how many individuals will need to be able to access them.
