In case you use an email account with your own personal domain name and not a 3rd-party one, you will be able to make use of an email application such as Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail to access and administer your emails. The advantage of using such applications is that you can also take advantage of other features, such as calendars and address books. There are two different email retrieval protocols that you can select from when you configure the app of your choosing to access your email account – POP3 and IMAP. With the first one, all email messages that are received will be downloaded to your device – desktop or mobile, unless you choose to leave a copy on the mail server. With the second one, the 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 view the messages from any place. You’ll also be able to see old emails if there is an issue with your Internet connection, which is an enormous advantage over a web-based service.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Website Hosting

You’ll be able to use any email client software and any desktop or handheld device to check your email messages if you get any of our shared website hosting. Our email servers offer support for both email delivery protocols (IMAP and POP3), so you can select the one that answers your interests – you can download all email messages on your PC or you can store the messages on the server if you’ve got a firm and a number of employees need to have access to them, for instance. You can even download a configuration file for a given mailbox for any of the three most widely used desktop email clients – Apple Mail, Outlook and Thunderbird. You’ll simply need to run the file on your computer and that mailbox will be automatically set up. In case you’d like to use your smartphone, we have exhaustive tutorials on how to set up an email account on an Android- or an iOS-powered mobile device.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server packages support both email delivery protocols, so you can pick either of them when you set up an account with an email software application. You can also download auto-config files for any email account that you set up from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, via which you administer your semi-dedicated server. Thus, you can add any account to Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail without needing to do anything manually. If you are on the move all the time and you’d like to check your emails using a smartphone, we have detailed tutorials with screenshots revealing how to configure an email account on an iPhone or an Android mobile phone. With our services, you can download the email messages to a single device or you can store them on the server, so as to be able to examine your messages from multiple devices and locations.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers

Both email protocols, IMAP and POP3, are offered with our VPS web hosting plans irrespective of the package or the Control Panel that you select. Each VPS includes its own pre-configured email server, so you will be able to create as many email accounts as you like, to send and to receive an unlimited number of messages and to employ your chosen email software app and even a smartphone. If you have chosen cPanel or our Hepsia Control Panel during the signup process, you will be given access to auto-configuration files for Apple Mail, Outlook and Thunderbird, which will set up your email accounts automatically in any of these applications on your personal computer. With our VPS plans, you will exercise total control over your email communication no matter where you are or what desktop or mobile device you’re using.
