POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
What types of e-mail accounts can be found? Which type should you opt for when you configure your e-mail program?
If you’ve got a domain name and a web hosting plan for it, you’ll be able to create email accounts for personal or business purposes and to set them up with programs such as Outlook, Apple Mail or Thunderbird. In the meantime, you’ll be able to pick one of the two popular email delivery protocols – IMAP or POP3. The first one will enable you to see all email messages, but they will remain on the email server, whereas with the second protocol, all email messages will be downloaded on the device where the email account is created, unless you explicitly choose a copy to be left on the server. In this way, you can choose if you would like all your electronic correspondence to be stored on a single device, or if you would rather be able to access the email messages from many places. The second alternative is quite valuable for firms where different employees working on different computers need access to a given email account.
