There’re plenty of web-based mail service providers that you can resort to, but using an email address with your very own personal domain will grant you more credibility if you have a business, for instance, not to mention that with web-based services there are limits on the maximum size of the attachments that you can send or receive. In case you use an email service that supports the POP3 and IMAP email retrieval protocols, you will not have such problems and you will be able to use any software program on your PC to check your mailboxes, including Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird. You can even set up a mailbox 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 email server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded on your PC, unless you configure the program in such a way as to leave a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Hosting

With a shared hosting from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email software application to see your emails. We support the POP3 and IMAP protocols, so you can pick either one when you set up a mailbox depending on your personal preference. To make things easier, you can download a small-sized file from your hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each email account that you set up. You can easily set up the latter with your chosen application by simply clicking on that file. This option represents an alternative to our webmail and the two services go hand in hand, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for instance, it will appear both in the webmail and on any computer where the given email account is configured.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can select between the IMAP and the POP3 protocols in case you have a semi-dedicated server account with us. We support both, so you can decide what to do with your messages – to store them on your PC or to keep them on the server and to view them from different devices. The latter option will also allow multiple individuals to use the very same email account – if you are hosting a corporate site on our servers, for instance. You can find auto-config files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia Control Panel, which will allow you to automatically set up everything in an email software program of your choice – Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird, so you won’t have to configure any settings manually. In case you’ve got a mobile phone, you can set up any mailbox just as easily – simply see our detailed tutorials for Android and iPhone. To make things easier, the help articles come with step-by-step screen-caps.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers

If you order a VPS server from our company, you’ll be able to create an unlimited number of email accounts with any domain hosted on the VPS and to set them up with any email software program. This is valid regardless of the hosting Control Panel that you’ll choose upon signup, since we’ll set up IMAP and POP3 email servers on the VPS in any event. You’ll be able to select either option and, to make things even simpler, you will be able to download auto-configuration files for Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail – if you get the server with cPanel or with our in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel. You can configure mailboxes on any device without any limits, even on your mobile phone – if you commute a lot and you’d like to remain in touch with pals and associates. With us, you can decide whether to download the email messages or to save them on the mail server depending on what you will use the accounts for and on how many individuals will need to access them.
