If you have an email address with your own domain and not a third-party one, you will be able to use an email software application such as Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook to check and manage your emails. The benefit of using such applications is that they also offer other features, such as calendars and address books. There are two email 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 to your device – mobile or desktop, unless you choose to save a copy on the email server. With the second protocol, the email messages will be displayed locally at your end, but they will remain on the server at all times, so you can set up the account on multiple devices and check the messages from any location. You’ll also be able to view old email messages in case there’s an issue with your Internet connection, which is an immense advantage over a web-based service.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Website Hosting
With a shared website hosting from us, you will be able to use any device and any email app to see your email messages. We offer support for the IMAP and POP3 email protocols, so you can select either of them when you create a mailbox in accordance with your personal preference. To make things simpler, you can download a small-sized configuration file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for each mailbox that you set up. You can automatically set up the latter with your chosen application by simply running that file on your computer. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two services complement each other, so if you create a folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the particular mailbox is configured.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
You can pick between the IMAP and the POP3 protocols in case you have a semi-dedicated server account with us. We support both, so you can choose what to do with your email messages – to download them to your PC or to keep them on the server and to access them from different devices. The latter option will also enable multiple individuals to use the very same mailbox – in case you are hosting a company site on our semi-dedicated servers, for example. You can find auto-configuration files in the Email Manager section of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which will enable you to automatically set up everything in an email software application of your choosing – Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook, so you won’t have to modify any settings manually. If you’ve got a smartphone, you can add any mailbox just as easily – simply check our elaborate tutorials for iPhone and Android. To make things even easier, the educational articles include step-by-step screen-caps.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers
Our VPS servers include a pre-installed email server, so you can host a domain name, then create a mailbox and set it up in an email client as soon as your Virtual Private Server is completely operational. We support both IMAP and POP3 connections by default, so you will not have to configure anything manually. If your Virtual Private Server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll even be able to download auto-configuration files for Thunderbird, Outlook and Apple Mail, which will spare you time and effort if you need to set up a mailbox in any of these applications. You will also be able to send out as many email messages as you wish – the VPSs have their own SMTP server, which tackles the outgoing emails. With our Virtual Private Server plans, you will be able to receive and send email messages from any location and any device. You can configure a mailbox even on your phone.
