POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
There are a few types of e-mail accounts in existence - read more about their pros and cons.
In case you have a domain and a hosting account for it, you’ll be able to create email accounts for personal or commercial purposes and to set them up with email applications such as Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird. During the procedure, you’ll be able to opt for one of the two most popular email protocols – IMAP or POP3. The first protocol will enable you to see all messages, but they will remain on the mail server, while with the second one, all email messages will be downloaded on the device where the email account is created, unless you explicitly select a copy to be left on the server. Thus, you can choose if you would like all your email correspondence to be kept on one single device, or if you would rather be able to view the emails from different locations. The latter option is pretty useful for businesses where a number of employees working on different computers need to gain access to a specific mailbox.

cloud hosting plan that we offer will allow you to create mailboxes with any domain hosted under your account and to set them up on any device. During the setup procedure, you can pick between the IMAP and the POP3 protocols, as we offer support for both, so you can decide which one to rely on depending on your preferences and the purpose of the account – you may choose to download all email messages if you have a personal account and to leave the messages on the mail server – in case you’ve got a business account, for example. The Email Manager, which is included in our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel, permits you to download and run a small auto-config file, so as to set up an email account with an email program – Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. You can even use your phone to examine your email messages and we have included an exhaustive tutorial on how to do this on an iPhone or an Android phone.
