In case you use an email address with your very own personal domain name and not a 3rd-party one, you’ll be able to use an email app such as Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird to check and manage your emails. The advantage of using such applications is that you can also take advantage of other features, such as address books and calendars. There are two different email delivery protocols that you can choose from when you configure the application of your choosing to access your email account – POP3 and IMAP. With the first protocol, all messages that are received will be downloaded onto your device – mobile or desktop, unless you choose to store a copy on the mail server. With the second one, the email messages will be displayed at your end, but they will remain on the server at all times, so you can set up the account on multiple devices and see the messages from any place. You will also be able to access old emails in case there is a predicament with your Internet access, which is an enormous advantage over a web-based email service.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Hosting
With a hosting from us, you will be able to use any device and any email software application to check your emails. We offer support for the IMAP and POP3 protocols, so you can select either one when you set up an email account depending on your personal preferences. To make things easier, you can download a small configuration file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for each email account that you set up. You can easily set up the latter with your chosen app by simply clicking on that file. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two services go hand in hand, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the particular mailbox is set up.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you have a semi-dedicated server plan with us, you will be able to access your emails from any device without any difficulty. In case you are non-stop on the move, you can see our comprehensive tutorials for iPhone and Android phones, and in case you have a desktop or a portable PC, you can download our auto-configuration files for Apple Mail, Outlook and Thunderbird and set up an email account with your chosen email client without the need to do anything manually. Since we offer support for both IMAP and POP3, you can go with the email delivery protocol that matches your needs best – you may decide to download personal emails at your end, whereas in case you use our email services for commercial purposes, you should go with IMAP, so as to permit numerous people to check a certain email account from different computers.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers
Our Linux VPS hosting plans come with a pre-installed mail server, so you can host a domain, then create an email account and set it up in an email software application as soon as your Virtual Private Server is fully functional. We support both POP3 and IMAP connections by default, so you will not have to install anything manually. If your server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will even be able to download auto-config files for Outlook, Thunderbird and Apple Mail, which will save you time and effort when you have to set up an account in any of these applications. You will also be able to send as many messages as you wish – the VPS accounts have their own SMTP server, which handles the outgoing emails. With our VPS plans, you will be able to receive/send email messages from any location and any device. You can set up a mailbox even on your mobile phone.
