POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
Find out about the various e-mail protocol varieties and which type to pick out when connecting with a mail client.
If you have a domain name and a web hosting package for it, you will be able to create mailboxes for personal or business purposes and to set them up with software programs such as Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. In the meantime, you will be able to pick one of the two most popular email protocols – IMAP or POP3. The first one will permit you to access all email 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 choose a copy to be kept on the server. In this way, you can choose if you’d like all your email communication to be kept on a single device, or if you’d rather be able to view the emails from different locations. The latter alternative is very useful for corporations where different employees working on separate computers need to gain access to a given mailbox.

During the setup process, you can select between the IMAP and the POP3 protocols, as we support both, so you can decide which one to make use of in accordance with your preferences and the purpose of your account – you may want to download all email messages if you’ve got a personal account and to save the messages on the email server – if you have a business account, for instance. The Email Manager tool, which is integrated into our custom-created Hepsia hosting Control Panel, permits you to download and run a small configuration file, so as to set up an email account with an email application – Apple Mail, Outlook or Thunderbird.
