There are plenty of web-based email service providers that you can use, but having an email address with your own personal domain will provide you with more credibility if you have a business, for example, not to mention that with web-based email services there are limitations on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. 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 software program on your computer to check your emails, including Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail. You can even set up a mailbox on your mobile device. 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 PC, unless you configure the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Website Hosting

Each shared website hosting package that we offer will allow you to create email accounts with any domain name hosted in your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can pick between the IMAP and the POP3 email retrieval protocols, as we support both, so you can decide which one to make use of depending on your preferences and the purpose of the account – you may decide to download all emails in case you have a personal account and to store the emails on the mail server – if you have a business account, for example. The Email Manager tool, which is included in our custom-created Hepsia Control Panel, permits you to download and run a small-sized auto-config file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email application – Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. You can even use your smartphone to access your emails and we have included an exhaustive tutorial on how to do this on an iPhone or an Android phone.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you use a semi-dedicated server package with us, you will be able to access your email messages from any device without effort. In case you are non-stop on the move, you can check our in-depth tutorials for iPhone and Android phones, and in case you have a desktop PC or a notebook, you can download our auto-configuration files for Apple Mail, Outlook and Thunderbird and set up a mailbox with your desired email software application without needing to do anything manually. Since we support both IMAP and POP3, you can choose the email protocol that corresponds to your requirements best – you may want to download personal emails at your end, whereas in case you use our services for business purposes, you should go with IMAP, so as to allow plenty of people to access a specific email account from separate devices.
