POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
There are a few types of e-mail accounts in existence - find out more about their pros and cons.
In case you’ve got a domain name and a hosting account for it, you’ll be able to create mailboxes for personal or business purposes and to set them up with apps such as Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. During the process, you will be able to choose one of the two popular email retrieval protocols – IMAP or POP3. The first one will enable you to access all messages, but they will remain on the mail server, while with the second protocol, all email messages will be downloaded to the device where the email account is created, unless you explicitly choose a copy to be saved on the server. In this way, you can choose if you would like all your e-communication to be kept on a single device, or if you would rather be able to examine the email messages from various places. The second alternative is pretty handy for firms where different people working on different computers need access to a given email account.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Hosting
Each
shared hosting package that we offer will permit you to create mailboxes with any domain name hosted under your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can select between the IMAP and the POP3 email protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can decide which one to use according to your preferences and the purpose of the account – you may decide to download all emails if you’ve got a personal account and to leave the emails on the email server – in case you have a business account, for example. The Email Manager tool, which is part of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small-sized auto-config file, so as to set up an email account with an email app – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can use even your phone to get your emails and we’ve added a comprehensive tutorial on how to carry out this on an iPhone or an Android phone.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers
If you order a
VPS server through us, you will be able to create unlimited mailboxes with any domain hosted on the VPS and to set them up with any email software program. This is valid regardless of the Control Panel that you will pick during the signup process, since we will set up IMAP and POP3 mail servers on the VPS anyhow. You will be able to select either option and, to make everything even simpler, you will be able to download auto-config files for Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird – if you get the server with cPanel or with our custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel. You can set up email accounts on any device without any limitations, even on your smartphone – if you travel a lot and you’d like to remain in touch with pals and associates. With our Virtual Private Servers, you can select whether to download the emails or to save them on the email server depending on what you’ll use the email accounts for and on how many individuals will need to access them.
