There are a lot of web-based email providers that you can use, but using an email 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 limitations on the maximum 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 protocols, you won’t bump into such problems and you will be able to use any program on your personal computer to access your email accounts, including Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird. You can even set up a mailbox on your smartphone. The difference between the two protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded to your personal computer, unless you configure the program in such a way as to keep a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Hosting

With a shared hosting service from our company, you will be able to use any device and any email software application to view your emails. We support the IMAP and POP3 email protocols, so you can opt for either one of them when you configure a mailbox in accordance with your personal preferences. To make things simpler, you can download a small configuration file from your hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each mailbox that you create. You can effortlessly set up the latter with your preferred application by simply clicking on that file. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two services are harmonized, so if you create a folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any computer where the particular email account is configured.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can pick between the POP3 and the IMAP protocols in case you have a semi-dedicated server plan with us. We support both of them, so you can choose what to do with your messages – to download them onto your PC or to keep them on the email server and to check them from multiple devices. The latter option will also allow different individuals to use the very same mailbox – in case you are hosting a corporate site on our servers, for example. You can find auto-configuration files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will permit you to set up everything automatically in an email software program of your choice – Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook, so you will not have to configure any settings manually. If you have a smartphone, you can add any mailbox just as easily – simply check out our in-depth tutorials for Android and iPhone. To make everything even simpler, the educational articles contain step-by-step screen-caps.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Hosting

Our Linux VPS hosting services feature a pre-installed email server, so you can host a domain, then create an email account and set it up in an email client as soon as your VPS is fully operational. We support both IMAP and POP3 connections by default, so you will not need to install anything manually. If your server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll even be able to download auto-configuration files for Apple Mail, Thunderbird and Outlook, which will spare you time and effort if you need to set up a mailbox in any of these applications. You will also be able to send as many emails as you wish – the VPSs have their own SMTP server, which handles the outbound messages. With our Virtual Private Server plans, you’ll be able to receive and send messages from any location and any device. You can set up a mailbox even on your smartphone.
