If emails are an essential part of your communication with business partners or family members, it might be better to use an email with your own domain and a mail service provider that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP email delivery protocols, rather than using a web-based email service that involves limitations as to the maximum size of the attachments. In this way, you will be able to access your email messages on any desktop or mobile device using any software – Apple Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird, and so forth. With the IMAP email protocol, you will be able to examine the emails locally at your end, but they will be on the server all the time, while with POP3, all email messages will be downloaded on the device, unless you choose a copy to be saved on the mail server. Furthermore, you will be able to use plenty of other handy options – contact groups, calendars, and so on, not to mention that if there is a temporary problem with your Internet service, you can still view your emails as they will be on your desktop or mobile device.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Web Hosting

Each web hosting plan that we offer will permit you to create mailboxes with any domain hosted under your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can decide which one to make use of according to your preferences and the purpose of the account – you may want to download all email messages in case you’ve got a personal account and to store the emails on the mail server – if you’ve got a business account, for instance. The Email Manager tool, which is built into our custom-created Hepsia hosting Control Panel, permits you to download and run a small auto-config file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email application – Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. You can even use your phone to get your emails and we’ve included a comprehensive tutorial on how to do this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
