There’re lots of web-based email providers that you can resort to, but using an email account with your own personal domain will give you more credibility if you have a business, for example, not to mention that with web-based email services there are restrictions on the size of the attachments that you can send or receive. If you use an email service that supports the POP3 and IMAP email retrieval protocols, you will not have such problems and you will be able to use any software program on your personal computer to access your mailboxes, including Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird. You can even set up an email account on your mobile phone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the mail server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded on 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 Shared Hosting

With a shared hosting from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email app to view your email messages. We offer support for the IMAP and POP3 email protocols, so you can pick either of them when you configure a mailbox depending on your individual preference. To make things simpler, you can download a small configuration file from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for each email account that you create. You can swiftly set up the latter with your preferred application by simply running that file on your PC. This option represents an alternative to our webmail and the two email services are synchronized, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for instance, it will appear both in the webmail and on any PC where the given email account is configured.
