If you use a mailbox with your own personal domain instead of a 3rd-party one, you’ll be able to make use of an email app such as Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird to check and manage your email messages. The advantage of using such applications is that you can also take advantage of other features, such as address books and calendars. There are two different email delivery protocols that you can choose from when you configure the application of your preference to access your mailbox – POP3 and IMAP. With the first one, all messages that are received will be downloaded to your device – desktop or mobile, unless you opt 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 all the time, so you can set up the account on multiple devices and check the email messages from any place. You’ll also be able to check old emails if there is a problem with your Internet connectivity, which is a big advantage over a web-based service.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Hosting
If you get a Linux hosting from our company, you will be able to create mailboxes with any domain name hosted under your account and to set them up with any email app. During the setup process, you can choose POP3 or IMAP as we offer support for the two email protocols, so it will depend on you if all emails will be downloaded locally at your end or if they will remain on the server. With us, you can even set up a mailbox on your smartphone regardless of its OS and we’ve got in-depth tutorials on how to do that. To save yourself time, you can also download and run our auto-configuration files to set up an account in Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail automatically. With our services, you can select a desired device and app to view your emails.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS
Our Linux VPS feature a pre-installed mail server, so you can host a domain name, then create an email account and set it up in an email client as soon as your Virtual Private Server is fully operational. We support both IMAP and POP3 connections by default, so you won’t need to configure anything manually. If your server comes with cPanel or with our Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll even be able to download auto-config files for Apple Mail, Thunderbird and Outlook, which will spare you time and effort if you have to set up a mailbox in any of these applications. You’ll also be able to send as many messages as you like – the VPS accounts have their own SMTP server, which takes care of the outgoing messages. With our Virtual Private Server plans, you’ll be able to send and receive messages from any location and any device. You can create an email account even on your mobile phone.
