In case you have an email with your own personal domain name and not a 3rd-party one, you’ll be able to make use of an email software app such as Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook to access and manage your emails. The benefit 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 protocols that you can choose from when you configure the application of your choice to access your mailbox – POP3 and IMAP. With the first protocol, all email messages that are received will be downloaded onto your device – desktop or mobile, unless you opt to leave a copy on the email server. With the second one, the email messages will be displayed locally at your end, but they will stay on the server at all times, so you can set up the email account on numerous devices and see the email messages from any location. You will also be able to see old emails in case there is a predicament with your Internet connectivity, which is a huge advantage over a web-based email service.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Web Hosting

Each and every shared web hosting plan that we offer will allow you to create email accounts with any domain name hosted in your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup process, you can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email protocols, as we support both, so you can choose which one to use based on your preference and the purpose of your account – you may choose to download all emails in case you’ve got a personal account and to save the messages on the mail server – if you have a business account, for instance. The Email Manager tool, which is included in our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small auto-configuration file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email app – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even use your smartphone to get your emails and we’ve added a comprehensive tutorial on how to carry out this on an iPhone or an Android phone.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can select between the POP3 and the IMAP email delivery protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server plan with us. We offer support for both, so you can decide what to do with your email messages – to save them to your PC or to leave them on the email server and to check them from multiple devices. The latter option will also permit different individuals to check the same mailbox – if you’re hosting a corporate web site 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 permit you to set up everything automatically in an email software application of your choice – Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail, so you won’t need to configure any settings manually. If you have a smartphone, you can add any mailbox just as easily – just follow our elaborate tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make things even simpler, the educational articles contain step-by-step screen-caps.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers

With our VPS server plans, you will be able to set up unlimited email addresses and to use them with any email software program on any device, as the VPSs come with a pre-installed email server that offers support for both email retrieval protocols – POP3 and IMAP. This is valid with all VPS plans regardless of which Control Panel you’ll pick during the signup process. With Hepsia and cPanel, you will be even able to download auto-config files, which will help you configure your mailboxes in Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail without needing to enter or change any system info and any settings manually. You can use any other email software program to send and receive email messages as well. You can even use your phone to view your e-correspondence when you’re on the road.
