There’re a lot of web-based email providers that you can resort to, but having an email address 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 email services there are limits on the maximum size of the attachments that you can send or receive. If you use an email service that supports the IMAP and POP3 protocols, you will not run into such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your personal computer to access your emails, including Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. You can even set up a mailbox on your phone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the email server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded to your computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Hosting
You’ll be able to use any email client software and any mobile or desktop device to check your email messages if you choose any of our hosting packages. Our email servers support both protocols (IMAP and POP3), so you can choose the one that fits your interests – you can download all emails onto your PC or you can keep the emails on the mail server in case you’ve got a firm and different people need to gain access to them, for instance. You can even download an auto-configuration file for a specific mailbox for any of the three most widely used desktop clients – Outlook, Apple Mail and Thunderbird. You will just have to run the file on your computer and that email account will be automatically set up. If you would rather use your phone, we’ve included comprehensive tutorials on how to set up an email account on an iOS- or an Android-based device.

In case you use a semi-dedicated server plan with us, you’ll be able to check your emails from any device without effort.

As we offer support for both IMAP and POP3, you can pick the email retrieval protocol that matches your interests best – you may want to download personal email messages at your end, whereas if you use our email services for commercial purposes, you should go with IMAP, so as to permit multiple people to check a particular mailbox from different locations.
