There are many web-based email service providers that you can resort to, but using a mailbox with your own domain will give you more credibility if you have a business, for example, not to mention that with web-based email services there are limits on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP protocols, you will not experience such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your PC to access your email messages, including Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even set up an email account on your phone. The difference between the two email 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 on your personal computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to leave a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Hosting

You’ll be able to use any email client and any handheld or desktop device to view your emails if you choose any of our Linux hosting. Our email servers offer support for both email retrieval protocols (IMAP and POP3), so you can choose the one that meets your needs – you can download all email messages onto your PC or you can keep the messages on the email server if you are running a company and different employees need to get access to them, for example. You can even download a configuration file for a certain email account for any of the three most widely used desktop email clients – Outlook, Thunderbird and Apple Mail. You’ll only have to run the file on your PC and that mailbox will be set up automatically. If you’d like to use your smartphone, we have included comprehensive tutorials on how to set up an email account on an iOS- or an Android-powered device.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting service give you full autonomy in regards to how and where you can use any email account that you set up through our Hepsia Control Panel. As we offer support for both POP3 and IMAP, you will be able to create a mailbox on any handheld or desktop device regardless of the Operating System in use – a desktop PC, a notebook or a mobile phone. You can even download our auto-config files for Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook and have a brand-new email account automatically set up with your chosen email software application. You’ll not have to do anything manually. Our elaborate tutorials with step-by-step screenshots will show you how to configure an email account on an iPhone or an Android phone. With all these devices, you can choose whether the email messages should be downloaded or if they should stay on the email server. If you choose the latter option, you’ll be able to check your emails from multiple locations.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers

Our Linux VPS web hosting service feature a pre-installed email server, so you can host a domain, then create a mailbox and set it up in an email program as soon as your Virtual Private Server is fully functional. We support both POP3 and IMAP connections by default, so you won’t need to configure anything manually. If your server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll even be able to download auto-config files for Outlook, Thunderbird and Apple Mail, which will save you time and energy if you have to set up an account in any of these applications. You’ll also be able to send as many emails as you wish – the VPS accounts have their own SMTP server, which takes care of the outgoing emails. With our VPS packages, you’ll be able to send/receive emails from any location and any device. You can create a mailbox even on your smartphone.
