In case email messages are a vital component of your electronic correspondence with business associates or family members, you may be better off using an email with your own personal domain name and a provider that supports the IMAP and POP3 email retrieval protocols, rather than relying on a web-based service that involves restrictions in regards to the maximum size of the attachments. Thus, you will be able to check your emails on any desktop or mobile device using any software application – Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, and so on. With the IMAP email protocol, you’ll be able to view the emails locally at your end, but they will be on the server at all times, whereas with POP3, all emails will be downloaded onto the device, unless you choose a copy to be saved on the mail server. What’s more, you’ll be able to take advantage of plenty of other valuable options – contact groups, calendars, and so on, not to mention that in case there’s a brief issue with your Internet connectivity, you can still see your email messages since they’ll be on your desktop or mobile device.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Website Hosting

Each and every shared website hosting package that we offer will permit you to create email accounts with any domain hosted under your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email retrieval protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can choose which one to use based on your preferences and the purpose of your email account – you may choose to download all emails in case you have a personal account and to save the emails on the email server – if you have a business account, for instance. The Email Manager, which is integrated into our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel, enables you to download and run a small configuration file, so as to set up an email account with an email software application – Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail. You can even use your phone to access your emails and we’ve added a comprehensive tutorial on how to perform this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
