POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
Find out about the different e-mail protocol types and which type to pick out when connecting with a mail client.
In case you’ve got 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 clients such as Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Outlook. During the process, you’ll be able to select one of the two popular email protocols – IMAP or POP3. The first one will permit you to examine all email messages, but they will remain on the mail server, whereas with the second one, all email messages will be downloaded onto the device where the mailbox is configured, unless you specifically choose a copy to be kept on the server. Thus, you can choose if you would like all your e-communication to be kept on a single device, or if you’d rather be able to view the emails from various places. The second alternative is quite useful for firms where a number of people working on separate computers need to access a specific mailbox.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Hosting
With a Linux cloud hosting from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email software application to check your emails. We support the IMAP and POP3 protocols, so you can select either of them when you set up a mailbox in accordance with your individual preference. To make things easier, you can download a small file from your Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each email account that you create. You can automatically set up the latter with your preferred application by simply clicking on that file. This option represents an alternative to our webmail and the two services complement each other, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for instance, it will appear both in the webmail and on any computer where the particular mailbox is set up.
