There are many web-based email service providers that you can resort to, but having an email account with your own personal domain name will provide you with more credibility if you are running a company, for instance, not to mention that with web-based services there are limits 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 will not face such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your personal computer to access your mails, including Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even set up a mailbox on your mobile phone. The difference between the two protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the email server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded to your PC, unless you configure the program in such a way as to store a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Website Hosting
With a cloud website hosting plan from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email software application to view your email messages. We offer support for the IMAP and POP3 email protocols, so you can opt for either of them when you set up an email account depending on your own preference. To make things simpler, you can download a small-sized configuration file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel for each email account that you set up. You can quickly set up the latter with your desired application by simply running that file on your PC. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two services are harmonized, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any computer where the given email account is configured.
