There are many web-based email service providers that you can use, but having an email account with your own personal domain will provide you with more credibility if you are running a company, for instance, not to mention that with web-based services there are limits on the maximum size of the attachments that you can receive or send. In case you use an email service that offers support for the IMAP and POP3 email delivery protocols, you will not stumble upon such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your PC to check your mailboxes, including Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can even set up an email account on your smartphone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the email server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded onto your computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to store a copy on the server.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Website Hosting

You’ll be able to use any email client and any mobile or desktop device to access your emails if you pick one of our website hosting. Our email servers support both email delivery protocols (IMAP and POP3), so you can select the one that fulfills your requirements – you can download all emails to your home computer or you can keep the messages on the mail server in case you’ve got a firm and different employees need to get access to them, for example. You can even download an auto-config file for a specific email account for any of the three most widely used desktop email clients – Outlook, Thunderbird and Apple Mail. You’ll only have to run the file on your PC and that mailbox will be set up automatically. If you’d rather use your phone, we have added comprehensive tutorials on how to create an email account on an Android- or an iOS-powered handheld device.
