POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
Discover more about the various e-mail protocol varieties and which type to decide on when connecting with a mail client.
In case you’ve got a domain name and a web hosting package for it, you will be able to create mailboxes for personal or commercial purposes and to set them up with applications such as Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail. During the process, you’ll be able to opt for one of the two popular protocols – IMAP or POP3. The first one will enable you to access all email messages, but they will remain on the mail server, whereas with the second protocol, all email messages will be downloaded on the device where the mailbox is configured, unless you specifically select a copy to be left on the server. Thus, you can choose if you want all your email communication to be kept on a single device, or if you’d rather be able to access the emails from numerous locations. The second option is pretty valuable for corporations where different people working on separate machines need to gain access to a given email account.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Website Hosting
Each cloud website hosting plan that we offer will allow you to create mailboxes with any domain name hosted under your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can pick between the POP3 and the IMAP email retrieval protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can choose which one to rely on according to your preference and the purpose of the account – you may choose to download all emails in case you’ve got a personal account and to leave the messages on the mail server – in case you’ve got a business account, for example. The Email Manager tool, which is part of our custom-created Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small-sized configuration file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email software application – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even use your phone to examine your email messages and we have added an exhaustive tutorial on how to do this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
