In case you have a mailbox with your own personal domain name instead of a 3rd-party one, you’ll be able to use an email software app such as Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird to check and administer your email accounts. The advantage of using such applications is that they also offer other features, such as address books and calendars. There are two different email retrieval protocols that you can select from when you configure the application of your choice to access your email account – POP3 and IMAP. With the first protocol, all email messages that are received will be downloaded onto your device – mobile or desktop, unless you decide to keep a copy on the mail server. With the second one, the messages will be displayed at your end, but they will remain on the server all the time, so you can set up the account on numerous devices and access the messages from any location. You will also be able to view old emails in case there’s a problem with your Internet connection, which is an immense advantage over web-based email services.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Hosting
With a Linux hosting package from our company, you’ll be able to use any device and any email app to see your email messages. We support the POP3 and IMAP protocols, so you can opt for either of them when you configure an email account in accordance with your personal preferences. To make things easier, you can download a small configuration file from your hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each email account that you set up. You can quickly set up the latter with your desired app by simply running that file on your computer. This option represents an alternative to our webmail and the two services complement each other, so if you create a folder in Outlook, for instance, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the given mailbox is set up.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated server plans support the two email delivery protocols, so you can select either one of them when you set up an email account with an email software application. You can also download auto-configuration files for any account that you create from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you administer your semi-dedicated server. Thus, you can add any account to Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird without the need to do anything manually. If you are non-stop on the move and you’d like to check your email messages using a smartphone, we have included comprehensive tutorials with screenshots showing how to set up an email account on an iPhone or an Android mobile phone. With our semi-dedicated server packages, you can download the email messages to a single device or you can keep them on the mail server, so as to be able to view your messages from different devices and locations.
