There’re a lot of web-based mail service providers that you can use, but having an email address with your own personal domain will grant you more credibility if you are running a business, for example, not to mention that with web-based email services there are restrictions on the maximum size of the attachments that you can receive or send. In case you use an email service that supports the POP3 and IMAP email protocols, you will not face such problems and you will be able to use any software program on your PC to check your email accounts, including Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook. 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 at your end, but remains on the mail server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded to your computer, 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
Each and every shared hosting plan that we offer will allow you to create email accounts with any domain hosted under your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup process, you can pick between the POP3 and the IMAP email retrieval protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can decide which one to make use of in accordance with your preferences and the purpose of your account – you may decide to download all email messages in case you’ve got a personal account and to keep the emails on the mail server – if you have a business account, for example. The Email Manager, which is integrated into our custom Hepsia Control Panel, permits you to download and run a small-sized file, so as to set up an email account with an email software program – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even use your smartphone to access your email messages and we have added an elaborate tutorial on how to carry out this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
In case you use a semi-dedicated server plan with us, you will be able to check your emails from any device effortlessly. If you are travelling all the time, you can check our elaborate tutorials for iPhone and Android mobile phones, and in case you have a desktop PC or a laptop, you can download our auto-configuration files for Outlook, Thunderbird and Apple Mail and set up an email account with your preferred software app without needing to do anything manually. Since we support both POP3 and IMAP, you can pick the email retrieval protocol that fits your demands most – you may decide to download personal emails at your end, while in case you use our services for business purposes, you should choose IMAP, so as to enable plenty of people to access a given email account from separate locations.
