There’re lots of web-based email providers that you can use, but using an email with your own domain will give you more credibility if you have a business, for instance, not to mention that with web-based email services there are restrictions 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 protocols, you won’t run into such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your personal computer to access your mails, 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 computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to store a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting
If you order a cloud web hosting through our company, you will be able to create mailboxes with any domain hosted under your account and to set them up with any email software app. During the setup process, you can select IMAP or POP3 as we offer support for the two email delivery protocols, so it will depend on you if all emails will be downloaded locally at your end or if they will stay on the email server. With our company, you can even set up an email account on your mobile phone irrespective of its Operating System and we’ve included in-depth tutorials on how to carry out that. To save yourself time, you can also download and run our auto-configuration files to set up an account in Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail automatically. With our shared hosting plans, you can choose a preferred device and application to check your email messages.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
You can select between the POP3 and the IMAP email delivery protocols in case you’ve got a semi-dedicated server account with us. We offer support for both, so you can choose what to do with your emails – to store them on your personal computer or to keep them on the server and to view them from multiple devices. The latter option will also enable multiple people to use the exact same email account – if you’re hosting a company website on our 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 an email app of your preference – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird, so you will not have to fine-tune any settings manually. In case you’ve got a smartphone, you can add any email account just as easily – just read our elaborate tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make things easier, the instructional articles include step-by-step screenshots.
