If you have an email account with your own personal domain instead of a 3rd-party one, you will be able to use an email application such as Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird to access and manage your email accounts. The advantage of using such applications is that you can also take advantage of other features, such as calendars and address books. There are two different email protocols that you can select from when you configure the app of your choosing to access your email account – POP3 and IMAP. With the first protocol, all email messages that are received will be downloaded to your device – desktop or mobile, unless you decide to keep a copy on the email server. With the second one, the messages will be displayed at your end, but they will remain on the server at all times, so you can set up the account on numerous devices and view the messages from any location. You will also be able to check old email messages in case there’s a problem with your Internet service, which is an advantage over a web-based service.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Hosting

Each and every cloud hosting plan that we offer will allow you to create email accounts with any domain hosted in your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can pick between the IMAP and the POP3 email retrieval protocols, as we support both, so you can decide which one to use depending on your preference and the purpose of your account – you may decide to download all emails if you have a personal account and to keep the messages on the server – if you have a business account, for example. The Email Manager, which is included in our custom Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small-sized auto-config file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email app – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird. You can even use your mobile phone to get your emails and we’ve included an in-depth tutorial on how to perform this on an iPhone or an Android phone.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email protocols if you have a semi-dedicated server plan with us. We offer support for both of them, so you can decide what to do with your email messages – to store them on your home computer or to keep them on the mail server and to access them from different devices. The second option will also enable different people to access the exact same email account – if you’re hosting a company website on our semi-dedicated servers, for instance. You can find auto-configuration files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will permit you to automatically set up everything in an application of your choosing – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird, so you will not need to tweak anything manually. If you have a mobile phone, you can add any email account just as easily – simply follow our in-depth tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make everything even easier, our educational articles include step-by-step screen-caps.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Hosting

Our VPS hosting include a pre-installed mail server, so you can host a domain name, then create a mailbox and set it up in an email app as soon as your Virtual Private Server is fully operational. We support both IMAP and POP3 connections by default, so you won’t have to install anything manually. If your server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll even be able to download auto-config files for Thunderbird, Outlook and Apple Mail, which will spare you time and energy if you need to set up an email account in any of these applications. You’ll also be able to send out as many email messages as you want – the VPS accounts have their own SMTP server, which handles the outbound messages. With our VPS packages, you’ll be able to receive and send emails from any location and any device. You can set up an email account even on your smartphone.
