There’re a lot of web-based email service providers that you can resort to, but having an email with your own domain name will give you more credibility if you are running a company, for instance, not to mention that with web-based email services there are restrictions on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that offers support for the IMAP and POP3 email retrieval protocols, you won’t bump into such problems and you will 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 a mailbox on your mobile phone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed at your end, but remains on the server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded onto 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 Cloud Hosting

If you buy a Linux cloud plan through our company, you will be able to create email accounts with any domain name hosted in your account and to set them up with any email application. During the process, you can opt for POP3 or IMAP as we support both email protocols, so it will depend on you if all email messages will be downloaded at your end or if they will stay on the mail server. With us, you can even set up a mailbox on your mobile phone regardless of its OS and we have included exhaustive tutorials on how to do that. To save yourself time, you can also download and run our auto-config files to set up an account in Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird automatically. With our shared hosting plans, you can pick a preferred device and application to access your email messages.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can pick between the IMAP and the POP3 protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server account with our company. We offer support for both of them, so you can decide what to do with your emails – to store them on your home computer or to keep them on the email server and to view them from different devices. The second option will also permit multiple people to use the exact same email account – if you’re hosting a company website on our semi-dedicated servers, for example. You can find auto-config files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will enable you to set up everything automatically in a software application of your preference – Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail, so you will not need to configure anything manually. If you have a smartphone, you can set up any email account just as easily – simply examine our exhaustive tutorials for Android and iPhone. To make things simpler, the instructional articles come with step-by-step screenshots.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers

With our VPS server plans, you’ll be able to create an unlimited number of email addresses and to use them with any email software program on any device, as the VPSs come with a pre-installed email server that offers support for both protocols – POP3 and IMAP. This is valid with all Virtual Private Server packages no matter which hosting Control Panel you will pick during the signup process. With Hepsia and cPanel, you’ll be even able to download auto-configuration files, which will help you set up your email accounts in Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail without entering or modifying any system information or any settings manually. You can make use of any other email software program to receive and send emails as well. You can even use your mobile phone to view your e-correspondence when you are on the move.
