There are a lot of web-based mail service providers that you can resort to, but having a mailbox with your own domain name will grant you more credibility if you are running a company, for example, not to mention that with web-based services there are limitations on the 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 retrieval protocols, you will not come across such problems and you will be able to use any program on your computer to check your mailboxes, including Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird. 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 server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded on your PC, unless you set up the program in such a way as to leave a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Website Hosting

With a Linux website hosting package from us, you will be able to use any device and any email software app to view your emails. We offer support for the IMAP and POP3 email protocols, so you can pick either one when you configure a mailbox depending on your individual preferences. To make things easier, you can download a small-sized file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for each mailbox that you set up. You can easily set up the latter with your desired app by simply running that file on your PC. 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 mailbox is set up.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Hosting

Our Linux VPS hosting packages include a pre-installed mail server, so you can host a domain, then create a mailbox and set it up in an email software app as soon as your server is fully operational. Both POP3 and IMAP connections are supported by default, so you will not have to configure anything manually. If your server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia Control Panel, you will even be able to download auto-config files for Outlook, Thunderbird and Apple Mail, which will spare you time and energy when you need to set up a mailbox in any of these applications. You will also be able to send as many email messages as you wish – the VPSs have their own SMTP server, which takes care of the outbound emails. With our Virtual Private Server packages, you’ll be able to receive/send emails from any location and any device. You can set up a mailbox even on your phone.
