There are many web-based mail service providers that you can use, but having an email with your very own personal domain name will give you more credibility if you have a business, for example, not to mention that with web-based services there are limits on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP protocols, you won’t bump into such problems and you will be able to use any program on your computer to check your email accounts, including Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even set up a mailbox on your mobile device. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the email server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded on your personal 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
With a shared plan from our company, you’ll be able to use any device and any email application to check your email messages. We offer support for the IMAP and POP3 protocols, so you can opt for either of them when you set up a mailbox in accordance with your own preference. To make things easier, you can download a small file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for each mailbox that you set up. You can automatically set up the latter with your desired application by simply clicking on that file. This option represents an alternative to our webmail and the two services complement each other, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any computer where the given email account is configured.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated hosting plans give you full freedom in terms of how and where you can use any email account that you set up via our Hepsia Control Panel. As we offer support for both POP3 and IMAP, you will be able to create an email account on any desktop or handheld device regardless of the OS in use – a desktop PC, a portable computer or a mobile phone. You can even download our auto-configuration files for Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird and have a new email account automatically set up with your desired software program. You will not have to do anything manually. Our comprehensive tutorials with step-by-step screenshots will reveal to you how to set up an email account on an iPhone or an Android phone. With all these devices, you can choose whether the email messages should be downloaded or if they should remain on the email server. If you select the second option, you will be able to check your emails from different locations.
