If you have an email account with your own personal domain instead of a third-party one, you will be able to use an email software app such as Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail to access and administer your email messages. The benefit of using such applications is that you can also take advantage of other features, such as calendars and address books. There are two different email retrieval protocols that you can choose from when you configure the application of your choice to access your mailbox – POP3 and IMAP. With the first one, all email messages that are received will be downloaded onto your device – desktop or mobile, unless you choose to store a copy on the mail server. With the second one, the messages will be displayed locally at your end, but they will remain on the server all the time, so you can set up the email account on numerous devices and see the email messages from any location. You will also be able to see old email messages in case there is a predicament with your Internet access, which is an immense advantage over web-based email services.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server plans offer support for the two email delivery protocols, so you can select either one when you set up an email account with an email software application. You can also download auto-configuration files for any mailbox that you create from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel, via which you administer your semi-dedicated server. In this way, you can add any email account to Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail without doing anything manually. If you’re on the move all the time and you would like to view your email messages using a mobile phone, we’ve added detailed tutorials with screen-caps clarifying how to create a mailbox on an iPhone or an Android smartphone. With our services, you can download the emails on a single device or you can leave them on the server, so as to be able to check your messages from multiple devices and locations.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Web Hosting

Our VPS web hosting services come with a pre-installed mail 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 fully operational. We support both POP3 and IMAP connections by default, so you won’t need to install anything manually. If your server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will even be able to download auto-configuration files for Thunderbird, Apple Mail and Outlook, which will spare you time and effort when you have to set up an email account in any of these applications. You will also be able to send out as many messages as you like – the VPS accounts have their own SMTP server, which tackles the outgoing messages. With our VPS plans, you’ll be able to send and receive messages from any location and any device. You can set up a mailbox even on your phone.
