If you have a domain and a web hosting plan for it, you will be able to create email accounts for personal or commercial purposes and to set them up with email programs such as Thunderbird, Outlook or Apple Mail. During the procedure, you will be able to opt for one of the two most popular protocols – IMAP or POP3. The first protocol will allow you to check all email messages, but they will remain on the server, whereas with the second protocol, all messages will be downloaded on the device where the email account is set up, unless you specifically choose a copy to be stored on the server. Thus, you can choose if you want all your e-correspondence to be kept on a single device, or if you’d rather be able to examine the email messages from various locations. The latter option is rather handy for organizations where a number of employees working on different machines need to access a specific mailbox.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Web Hosting

Each and every shared web hosting package that we offer will permit you to create mailboxes with any domain hosted in your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can pick between the POP3 and the IMAP email protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can decide which one to use according to your preference and the purpose of the email account – you may want to download all email messages in case you’ve got a personal account and to leave the messages on the email server – in case you’ve got a business account, for instance. The Email Manager, which is built into our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel, allows you to download and run a small-sized file, so as to set up an email account with an email program – Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. You can use even your mobile phone to check your emails and we’ve added an exhaustive tutorial on how to do this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
