In case email messages are a fundamental component of your correspondence with business colleagues or relatives, you would be better off using an email with your own domain name and an email service provider that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP protocols, instead of relying on a web-based service that involves limitations in regards to the maximum size of the attachments. Thus, you’ll be able to access your mailboxes on any desktop or mobile device using any client software – Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, etc. With the IMAP email protocol, you’ll be able to see the email messages locally at your end, but they will be on the server at all times, whereas with the POP3 protocol, all emails will be downloaded onto the device, unless you choose a copy to be saved on the server. Additionally, you will be able to use many other valuable options – calendars, contact groups, etc., not to mention that in case there is a temporary problem with your Internet service, you can still view your emails as they will be on your desktop or mobile device.

POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Shared Web Hosting

With a shared web hosting plan from our company, you will be able to use any device and any email app to access your email messages. We offer support for the IMAP and POP3 email retrieval protocols, so you can select either of them when you set up an email account depending on your own preference. To make things easier, you can download a small-sized configuration file from your Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each mailbox that you create. You can effortlessly set up the latter with your preferred app by simply clicking on that file. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two services are harmonized, so if you create a new folder in Outlook, for example, it will appear both in the webmail and on any computer where the given mailbox is set up.
