There’re many web-based email service providers that you can use, but having a mailbox with your very own personal 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 restrictions on the maximum size of the attachments that you can send or receive. If you use an email service that supports the POP3 and IMAP email delivery protocols, you won’t experience such problems and you will be able to use any software program on your computer to access your emails, including Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even set up an email account on your smartphone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed at your end, but remains on the mail server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded on your personal computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to keep a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Website Hosting
Each shared website hosting package that we offer will allow you to create mailboxes with any domain hosted in 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 support both, so you can choose which one to use in accordance with your preference and the purpose of your email account – you may want to download all emails if you’ve got a personal account and to save the messages on the mail server – if you’ve got a business account, for instance. The Email Manager tool, which is built into our in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel, enables you to download and run a small auto-config file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email program – Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail. You can even use your mobile phone to get your email messages and we’ve got an exhaustive tutorial on how to do this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
