In case you use a mailbox with your very own personal domain and not a 3rd-party one, you’ll be able to make use of an email software app such as Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail to check and manage your mailboxes. The benefit of using such applications is that they also offer other features, such as address books and calendars. There are two email delivery protocols that you can select from when you set up the app of your choice to access your mailbox – POP3 and IMAP. With the first protocol, all email messages that are received will be downloaded on your device – mobile or desktop, unless you choose to store a copy on the mail server. With the second protocol, the email messages will be displayed at your end, but they will stay on the server all the time, so you can set up the email account on numerous devices and access the messages from any place. You will also be able to examine old emails in case there is an issue with your Internet connection, which is an advantage over a web-based email service.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting
Each and every cloud web hosting package 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 process, you can pick between the POP3 and the IMAP email protocols, as we support both, so you can choose which one to make use of based on your preferences and the purpose of the email account – you may decide to download all emails if you’ve got a personal account and to save the messages on the server – in case you’ve got a business account, for example. The Email Manager tool, which is integrated into our in-house developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel, enables you to download and run a small auto-configuration file, so as to set up a mailbox with an email software application – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even use your mobile phone to get your email messages and we’ve included an elaborate tutorial on how to carry out this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
