There are numerous web-based email providers that you can resort to, but using an email with your very own personal domain name will provide you with more credibility if you are running a company, for example, not to mention that with web-based services there are limitations on the size of the attachments that you can send or receive. If you use an email service that supports the POP3 and IMAP protocols, you won’t encounter such problems and you’ll be able to use any program on your PC to check your email accounts, including Outlook, Apple Mail 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 at your end, but remains on the email server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded on your personal computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to keep a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Website Hosting
With a Linux website hosting plan from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email application to see your emails. We support the IMAP and POP3 email protocols, so you can pick either one of them when you configure a mailbox based on your own preferences. To make things simpler, you can download a small-sized configuration file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel for each email account that you set up. You can quickly set up the latter with your chosen application by simply running that file on your computer. This option represents an alternative to our webmail and the two email services are harmonized, so if you create a folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the given mailbox is configured.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server packages support the two email delivery protocols, so you can choose either one when you set up an email account with an email app. You can also download auto-config 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. Thus, you can add any email account to Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook without the need to do anything manually. If you are non-stop on the move and you would like to access your emails using a mobile phone, we have included detailed tutorials with screenshots teaching how to configure an account on an iPhone or an Android smartphone. With our semi-dedicated server packages, you can download the emails to a single device or you can store them on the email server, so as to be able to view your email messages from different devices and locations.
