POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
Discover more about the various e-mail protocol varieties and which type to choose when setting up a mail client.
If you have an email account with your own domain instead of a 3rd-party one, you’ll be able to use an email software app such as Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook to access and manage your emails. The advantage of using such apps is that they also offer other features, such as address books and calendars. There are two email retrieval protocols that you can select from when you set up the application of your choosing to access your email account – POP3 and IMAP. With the first one, all messages that are received will be downloaded onto your device – desktop or mobile, unless you choose to save a copy on the mail server. With the second one, the email messages will be displayed locally at your end, but they will stay on the server all the time, so you can set up the email account on multiple devices and access the messages from any place. You will also be able to see old email messages in case there is a problem with your Internet connection, which is a big advantage over web-based services.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Hosting
With a
hosting from our company, you will be able to use any device and any email software application to see your emails. We support the IMAP and POP3 protocols, so you can pick either one when you configure a mailbox depending on your own preference. To make things easier, 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 email 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 mailbox is configured.

Thus, you can add any account to Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook without the need to do anything manually.

You’ll be able to pick either option and, to make everything even simpler, you’ll be able to download auto-configuration files for Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook – if you get the VPS with cPanel or with our custom-created Hepsia Control Panel. You can set up email accounts on any device without any limits, even on your phone – if you commute a lot and you wish to be in touch with buddies and associates. With us, you can choose whether to download the email messages or to save them on the server based on what you will use the accounts for and on how many persons will need to get access to them.
