There’re a lot of web-based email service providers that you can resort to, but having a mailbox with your own domain will grant you more credibility if you have a company, for instance, not to mention that with web-based services there are limits on the size of the attachments that you can send or receive. In case you use an email service that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP email retrieval protocols, you will not run into such problems and you will be able to use any program on your computer to access your mailboxes, including Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even set up an email account on your phone. 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, while with POP3, the message is downloaded onto your computer, unless you configure the program in such a way as to leave a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting

With a Linux cloud web hosting from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email application to see your email messages. We support the IMAP and POP3 protocols, so you can choose either of them when you set up an email account based on your personal preference. To make things simpler, you can download a small configuration file from your Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each mailbox that you create. You can effortlessly set up the latter with your chosen application by simply running that file on your PC. This option represents 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 given email account is set up.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email retrieval protocols in case you have a semi-dedicated server account with us. We support both, so you can decide what to do with your email messages – to save them to your personal computer or to keep them on the email server and to check them from multiple devices. The second option will also allow multiple people to access the very same email account – in case you are hosting a corporate site on our semi-dedicated servers, for instance. You can find auto-configuration files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia Control Panel, which will permit you to automatically set up everything in a software program of your choice – Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird, so you won’t have to configure any settings manually. If you have a mobile phone, you can add any mailbox just as easily – just read our detailed tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make things even easier, our instructional articles include step-by-step screenshots.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers

If you get a VPS server through our company, you will be able to create an unlimited number of email accounts with any domain name hosted on the VPS and to set them up with any email software program. This is valid irrespective of the Control Panel that you’ll opt for during the signup procedure, as we will set up POP3 and IMAP mail servers on the VPS in any event. You’ll be able to choose either option and, to make things even simpler, you’ll be able to download auto-configuration files for Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail – if you order the VPS with cPanel or with our in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel. You can create mailboxes on any device without any restrictions, even on your smartphone – if you commute a lot and you’d like to keep in touch with buddies and associates. With us, you can choose whether to download the email messages or to leave them on the mail server based on what you will use the email accounts for and on how many persons will need to be able to access them.
