If emails are a key component of your e-correspondence with business partners or relatives, it may be better to use a mailbox with your own domain and a mail service provider that offers support for the IMAP and POP3 email retrieval protocols, instead of relying on a web-based service that involves restrictions with regard to the maximum size of the attachments. Thus, you will be able to access your emails on any desktop or mobile device using any program – Apple Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird, and so forth. With the IMAP protocol, you’ll be able to view the emails locally at your end, but they will be on the server all the time, while with the POP3 protocol, all emails will be downloaded on the device, unless you choose a copy to be kept on the email server. In addition, you will be able to take advantage of many other handy options – calendars, contact groups, and so on, not to mention that in case there is a brief problem with your Internet service, you can still see your email messages since they will be on your desktop or mobile device.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Hosting
If you buy a Linux cloud hosting from our company, you will be able to create email accounts with any domain name hosted under your account and to set them up with any email app. During the setup 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 locally at your end or if they will stay on the email server. With our company, you can even set up an email account on your mobile phone irrespective of its Operating System and we have included elaborate tutorials on how to perform that. To spare some time, you can also download and run our auto-configuration files to set up an account in Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird automatically. With our shared hosting plans, you can select a desired device and software application to check your emails.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email protocols in case you’ve got a semi-dedicated server plan with us. We support both, so you can decide what to do with your emails – to download them to your home computer or to keep them on the email server and to view them from different devices. The second option will also allow multiple people to access the same mailbox – in case you are hosting a corporate web site on our servers, for instance. You can find auto-configuration files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will enable you to set up everything automatically in an app of your preference – Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird, so you will not have to configure any settings manually. In case you’ve got a mobile phone, you can add any email account just as easily – just read our elaborate tutorials for Android and iPhone. To make things simpler, the instructional articles come with step-by-step screen-caps.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS
With our virtual private server packages, you’ll be able to create unlimited email accounts and to use them with any email software app on any device, as the VPSs come with a pre-configured email server that offers support for both email retrieval protocols – POP3 and IMAP. This is valid with all plans irrespective of which Control Panel you’ll select during the order process. With Hepsia and cPanel, you will be even able to download auto-config files, which will help you set up your mailboxes in Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird without having to enter or modify any system information and any settings manually. You can use any other email client to receive and send emails too. You can even use your phone to view your e-correspondence when you’re on the road.
