In case you have an email account with your very own personal domain instead of a third-party one, you’ll be able to use an email app such as Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird to access and administer your email accounts. The advantage of using such applications is that they also offer other features, such as address books and calendars. There are two different email protocols that you can select from when you set up the app of your preference to access your email account – POP3 and IMAP. With the first protocol, all email messages that are received will be downloaded to your device – mobile or desktop, unless you decide to store a copy on the email server. With the second protocol, the messages will be displayed locally at your end, but they will stay on the server at all times, so you can set up the account on multiple devices and access the messages from any place. You will also be able to check old email messages if there’s a problem with your Internet connection, which is a huge advantage over web-based email services.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Website Hosting
You’ll be able to use any email client and any device to examine your email messages if you order any of our shared website hosting service. Our mail servers support both protocols (POP3 and IMAP), so you can choose the one that matches your needs – you can download all emails on your personal computer or you can keep the emails on the mail server if you have a firm and different people need access to them, for example. You can even download an auto-config file for a specific email account for any of the three most widely used desktop clients – Thunderbird, Apple Mail and Outlook. You’ll only need to run the file on your PC and that email account will be automatically set up. In case you want to use your phone, we have included elaborate tutorials on how to create an email account on an iOS- or an Android-based handheld device.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
You can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email retrieval protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server account with us. We support both, so you can choose what to do with your emails – to download them on your home computer or to leave them on the mail server and to check them from different devices. The latter option will also enable different people to use the same mailbox – in case you’re hosting a company web site on our servers, for instance. You can find auto-configuration files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will permit you to automatically set up everything in an email software application of your preference – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail, so you won’t need to modify anything manually. If you have a mobile phone, you can add any mailbox just as easily – simply follow our exhaustive tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make everything even easier, the help articles contain step-by-step screenshots.
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 mailboxes with any domain hosted on the VPS and to set them up with any email software app. This is valid irrespective of the hosting Control Panel that you will choose upon signup, as we’ll install POP3 and IMAP mail servers on the VPS anyhow. You will be able to choose either option and, to make everything even easier, you will be able to download auto-config files for Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook – if you order the server with cPanel or with our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You can configure mailboxes on any device without any limits, even on your phone – if you commute a lot and you would like to be in touch with friends and partners. With our services, you can select whether to download the emails or to keep them on the email server based on what you’ll use the accounts for and on how many people will need access to them.
