There’re many web-based email service providers that you can use, but having an email address with your own personal domain will grant you more credibility if you have a business, for instance, not to mention that with web-based services there are restrictions on the 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 face such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your computer to check your mails, including Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. You can even set up an email account on your mobile device. The difference between the two protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed at your end, but remains on the email 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 Web Hosting

With a shared web hosting from us, you will be able to use any device and any email application to access your email messages. We support the POP3 and IMAP email delivery protocols, so you can choose either one of them when you set up a mailbox based on your personal preference. To make things easier, you can download a small-sized file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for each mailbox that you create. You can swiftly set up the latter with your chosen app by simply running that file on your PC. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two email services complement each other, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for instance, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the given email account is configured.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can choose between the POP3 and the IMAP email retrieval protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server account with our company. We offer support for both of them, so you can decide what to do with your messages – to save them to your home computer or to keep them on the server and to access them from multiple devices. The latter option will also allow different people to use the very same mailbox – if you’re hosting a company site on our servers, for example. You can find auto-config files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia Control Panel, which will allow you to automatically set up everything in a client of your choice – Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird, so you won’t need to fine-tune anything manually. In case you’ve got a mobile phone, you can set up any email account just as easily – simply see our exhaustive tutorials for iPhone and Android.
