There are a lot of web-based email service providers that you can resort to, but having a mailbox with your own domain name will provide you with more credibility if you are running a company, for example, not to mention that with web-based email services there are limitations on the size of the attachments that you can send or receive. In case you use an email service that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP email protocols, you will not have such problems and you’ll be able to use any program on your computer to check your email messages, including Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even set up an email account on your phone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed at your end, but remains on the server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded to your PC, unless you configure the program in such a way as to keep a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Hosting
Each cloud hosting plan that we offer will enable you to create mailboxes with any domain hosted in your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup process, you can select between the IMAP and the POP3 protocols, as we support both, so you can decide which one to use depending on your preference and the purpose of the email account – you may choose to download all email messages if you’ve got a personal account and to keep the emails on the email server – in case you have a business account, for instance. The Email Manager tool, which is included in our custom-created Hepsia Control Panel, permits you to download and run a small auto-config file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email application – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even use your phone to view your email messages and we’ve included an in-depth tutorial on how to carry out this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated server packages support both email delivery protocols, so you can choose either one of them when you set up an account with an email program. You can also download auto-config files for any email account that you set up from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you manage your semi-dedicated server. Thus, you can add any account to Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail without having to do anything manually. In case you’re on the move all the time and you would like to view your email messages using a mobile phone, we have exhaustive tutorials with screenshots clarifying how to set up an account on an iPhone or an Android smartphone. With our services, you can download the email messages on one single device or you can keep them on the server, so as to be able to examine your messages from multiple locations and devices.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Hosting
Both email delivery protocols, IMAP and POP3, are offered with our Linux VPS hosting packages regardless of the plan or the Control Panel that you choose. Each VPS comes with a pre-configured email server, so you’ll be able to set up as many mailboxes as you wish, to send and to receive an unlimited number of emails and to employ your chosen email app and even a mobile phone. If you have selected cPanel or our Hepsia Control Panel during the order process, you will be bestowed with access to auto-config files for Outlook, Apple Mail and Thunderbird, which will set up your mailboxes automatically in any of these applications on your computer. With our VPS plans, you’ll exercise absolute control over your electronic correspondence no matter where you are or what desktop or handheld device you are using.
