In case email messages are an indivisible part of your e-communication with business associates or relatives, it would be better to use an email address with your own personal domain and an email service provider that offers support for the IMAP and POP3 email retrieval protocols, instead of using a web-based service that involves limitations as to the size of the attachments. In this way, you will be able to check your emails on any desktop or mobile device using any client software – Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, etc. With the IMAP email protocol, you will be able to view the email messages locally at your end, but they will be on the server at all times, while with the POP3 protocol, all emails will be downloaded on the device, unless you choose a copy to be stored on the email server. In addition, you will be able to take advantage of many other useful options – contact groups, calendars, etc., not to mention that if there’s a temporary issue with your Internet connectivity, you can still view your emails since they’ll be on your desktop or handheld device.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Web Hosting
With a Linux web hosting from us, you will be able to use any device and any email software application to see your emails. We offer support for the POP3 and IMAP email delivery protocols, so you can choose either one when you create an email account based on your own preference. To make things easier, you can download a small file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel for each mailbox that you create. You can effortlessly set up the latter with your chosen app 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 folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the given email account is configured.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You can pick between the POP3 and the IMAP email protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server account with our company. We support both of them, so you can choose what to do with your email messages – to save them to your PC or to keep them on the email server and to view them from different devices. The second option will also allow different people to use the same email account – if you are hosting a corporate web site on our servers, for instance. You can find auto-config files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia Control Panel, which will permit you to set up everything automatically in a program of your preference – Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook, so you won’t have to modify anything manually. If you’ve got a smartphone, you can add any mailbox just as easily – just check our detailed tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make everything even easier, our instructional articles include step-by-step screenshots.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Web Hosting
Our Linux VPS web hosting come with a pre-installed email server, so you can host a domain, then create an email account and set it up in an email software application as soon as your server is ready. Both IMAP and POP3 connections are supported by default, so you will not have to install anything manually. If your Virtual Private Server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll even be able to download auto-config files for Apple Mail, Thunderbird and Outlook, which will save you time and effort if you have to set up an email account in any of these applications. You’ll also be able to send as many email messages as you wish – the VPS accounts have their own SMTP server, which handles the outgoing messages. With our Virtual Private Server packages, you will be able to send/receive emails from any location and any device. You can configure an email account even on your phone.
