There’re a lot of web-based mail service providers that you can use, but using an email address with your own personal domain will give you more credibility if you are running a business, for example, not to mention that with web-based services there are restrictions on the maximum size of the attachments that you can send or receive. If you use an email service that supports the IMAP and POP3 email delivery protocols, you will not stumble upon such problems and you’ll be able to use any program on your personal computer to check your email accounts, including Apple Mail, Thunderbird 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 computer, unless you configure the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Website Hosting

Each website hosting plan that we offer will permit you to create email accounts with any domain hosted under your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can select between the POP3 and the IMAP email delivery protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can decide which one to make use of in accordance with your preference and the purpose of your account – you may want to download all emails if you have a personal account and to leave the emails on the email server – if you’ve got a business account, for instance. The Email Manager tool, which is integrated into our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small configuration file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email app – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can use even your smartphone to get your email messages and we have a detailed tutorial on how to perform this on an iPhone or an Android phone.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server plans support both email retrieval protocols, so you can select either one of them when you set up an email 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 administer your server. Thus, you can add any email account to Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook without doing anything manually. In case you are non-stop on the move and you’d like to check your email messages using a smartphone, we’ve included elaborate tutorials with screen-caps explaining how to set up an account on an iPhone or an Android smartphone. With our semi-dedicated server packages, you can download the email messages onto one single device or you can leave them on the mail server, so as to be able to view your email messages from different devices and locations.
