If you have an email account with your own personal domain and not a third-party one, you’ll be able to make use of an email software application such as Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook to check and manage your emails. The benefit of using such apps is that you can also take advantage of other features, such as address books and calendars. There are two different email retrieval protocols that you can choose from when you configure the app of your liking to access your mailbox – POP3 and IMAP. With the first protocol, all messages that are received will be downloaded to your device – desktop or mobile, unless you opt to leave a copy on the server. With the second one, the email messages will be displayed at your end, but they will stay on the server all the time, so you can set up the account on numerous devices and access the email messages from any location. You will also be able to check old email messages if there’s an issue with your Internet connectivity, which is an advantage over a web-based email service.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Web Hosting

If you buy a Linux web hosting from our company, you’ll be able to create mailboxes with any domain name hosted in your account and to set them up with any email app. During the setup procedure, you can opt for POP3 or IMAP as we offer support for both email protocols, so it will be up to you if all emails will be downloaded at your end or if they will remain on the server. With us, you can even set up a mailbox on your phone regardless of its Operating System and we have comprehensive tutorials on how to carry out that. To save yourself time, you can also download and run our auto-config files to set up an account in Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail automatically. With our hosting plans, you can pick a preferred device and software app to examine your emails.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can choose between the IMAP and the POP3 email retrieval protocols in case you’ve got a semi-dedicated server plan with us. We support both, so you can choose what to do with your emails – to download them to your home computer or to keep them on the server and to view them from multiple devices. The latter option will also permit different individuals to access the exact same email account – if you are hosting a corporate website on our semi-dedicated servers, for example. You can find auto-config files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will allow you to set up everything automatically in a software program of your preference – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird, so you won’t have to fine-tune any settings manually. In case you’ve got a smartphone, you can add any mailbox just as easily – just check our comprehensive tutorials for iPhone and Android.
