There’re lots of web-based mail service providers that you can resort to, but having an email address with your very own personal domain will give you more credibility if you have a business, for instance, not to mention that with web-based email services there are limits on the maximum size of the attachments that you can send or receive. If you use an email service that supports the POP3 and IMAP email delivery protocols, you will not have such problems and you will be able to use any program on your computer to access your emails, including Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even set up a mailbox on your phone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded on your personal computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Hosting
With a Linux cloud hosting from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email app to view your emails. We offer support for the POP3 and IMAP email retrieval protocols, so you can choose either one when you configure a mailbox depending on your individual preferences. To make things easier, you can download a small configuration file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for each mailbox that you set up. You can easily set up the latter with your preferred application by simply running that file on your PC. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two services are synchronized, so if you create a folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the particular email account is set up.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated server plans offer support for both email retrieval protocols, so you can pick either of them when you set up a mailbox with an email client. You can also download auto-configuration files for any email account that you create from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, via which you administer your server. In this way, you can add any email account to Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook without needing to do anything manually. In case you’re non-stop on the move and you would like to view your emails using a smartphone, we have included detailed tutorials with screenshots explaining how to configure a mailbox on an iPhone or an Android smartphone. With our semi-dedicated server plans, you can download the emails to one single device or you can keep them on the mail server, so as to be able to view your messages from different devices and locations.
