If email messages are an indispensable component of your online communication with business associates or family members, you would be better off using an email address with your own domain name and a mail service provider that supports the IMAP and POP3 protocols, rather than relying on a web-based service that involves limitations as to the maximum size of the attachments. In this way, you’ll be able to check your mails on any desktop or mobile device using any software app – Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, and so forth. With the IMAP email protocol, you will be able to see the emails locally at your end, but they will be on the server all the time, whereas with POP3, all email messages will be downloaded on the device, unless you choose a copy to be stored on the email server. On top of that, you will be able to use lots of other useful options – contact groups, calendars, etc., not to mention that if there is a brief predicament with your Internet access, you can still check your email messages as they will be on your desktop or handheld device.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Hosting

You will be able to use any email client and any handheld or desktop device to access your email messages if you opt for one of our Linux cloud hosting plans. Our email servers offer support for both email retrieval protocols (POP3 and IMAP), so you can select the one that matches your demands – you can download all email messages to your PC or you can keep the emails on the mail server if you have a firm and a number of employees need to have access to them, for instance. You can even download a configuration file for a particular mailbox for any of the three most widely used desktop clients – Thunderbird, Apple Mail and Outlook. You’ll simply have to run the file on your PC and that email account will be automatically set up. In case you would like to use your phone, we have included detailed tutorials on how to configure a mailbox on an Android- or an iOS-driven handheld device.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in VPS Servers

Our VPS plans feature a pre-installed mail server, so you can host a domain, then create a mailbox and set it up in an email app as soon as your server is fully functional. Both IMAP and POP3 connections are supported by default, so you will not have to set up anything manually. If your Virtual Private Server comes with our Hepsia Control Panel or with cPanel, you will even be able to download auto-configuration files for Thunderbird, Apple Mail and Outlook, which will save you time and effort when you have to set up an account in any of these apps. You’ll also be able to send as many messages as you wish – the VPSs have their own SMTP server, which takes care of the outbound emails. With our VPS packages, you will be able to receive/send messages from any location and any device. You can set up an email account even on your smartphone.
