In case email messages are an indispensable part of your online communication with business colleagues or family members, it may be better to use an email address with your own personal domain and a provider that supports the IMAP and POP3 email retrieval protocols, instead of using a web-based service that entails limitations with regard to the maximum size of the attachments. Thus, you’ll be able to check your email messages on any desktop or mobile device using any software app – Apple Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird, and so on. With the IMAP protocol, you will be able to see the emails at your end, but they will be on the server all the time, whereas with POP3, all emails will be downloaded to the device, unless you choose a copy to be left on the email server. What’s more, you will be able to use many other useful options – contact groups, calendars, and so on, not to mention that if there is a temporary issue with your Internet access, you can still examine your emails since they will be on your desktop or mobile device.
POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting
With a Linux cloud web hosting from us, you’ll be able to use any device and any email software application to see your emails. We support the IMAP and POP3 email delivery protocols, so you can pick either one of them when you set up an email account depending on your own preferences. To make things easier, you can download a small file from your Control Panel’s Email Manager section for each mailbox that you set up. You can automatically set up the latter with your desired app by simply running that file on your computer. This option is an alternative to our webmail and the two email services go hand in hand, so if you create a folder in Outlook, for instance, it will appear both in the webmail and on any computer where the given email account is configured.
