There are plenty of web-based mail service providers that you can resort to, but using an email address with your own personal domain will provide you with more credibility if you have a business, for instance, not to mention that with web-based services there are restrictions on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that supports the IMAP and POP3 protocols, you will not experience such problems and you’ll be able to use any program on your personal computer to check your mails, including Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook. You can even set up an email account on your mobile phone. The difference between the two protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the mail server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded onto your personal computer, unless you configure the program in such a way as to leave a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Hosting
Each and every hosting plan that we offer will permit you to create email accounts with any domain hosted in your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email delivery protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can decide which one to make use of depending on your preference and the purpose of the account – you may choose to download all emails if you have a personal account and to store the messages on the server – if you have a business account, for example. The Email Manager tool, which is part of our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small auto-configuration file, so as to set up an email account with an email software program – Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook. You can even use your mobile phone to access your email messages and we’ve added an exhaustive tutorial on how to carry out this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
You can pick between the IMAP and the POP3 email delivery protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server plan with us. We offer support for both of them, so you can decide what to do with your email messages – to download them to your home computer or to leave them on the mail server and to check them from multiple devices. The latter option will also permit multiple people to check the exact same email account – if you are hosting a corporate website on our semi-dedicated servers, for instance. You can find auto-configuration files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will enable you to set up everything automatically in a software program of your choice – Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook, so you will not need to tweak anything manually. In case you’ve got a smartphone, you can set up any email account just as easily – simply read our comprehensive tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make everything easier, our help articles come with step-by-step screen-caps.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers
With our VPS server packages, you’ll be able to create an unlimited number of email addresses and to use them with any email software app on any device, as the VPSs come with a pre-configured mail server that offers support for both email delivery protocols – POP3 and IMAP. This is valid with all plans irrespective of which Control Panel you will select during the VPS order procedure. With Hepsia and cPanel, you’ll even be able to download auto-configuration files, which will help you configure your email accounts in Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird without entering or modifying any system information or any settings manually. You can use any other email application to receive and send email messages as well. You can even use your phone to check your electronic correspondence when you are on the road.
