POP3 IMAP E-mail Accounts
There are a couple of kinds of e-mail accounts in existence - learn more about their pros and cons.
If email messages are an essential part of your electronic communication with business colleagues or family members, it would be better to use an email account with your own personal domain name and a provider that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP email delivery protocols, instead of relying on a web-based service that entails limitations with regards to the size of the attachments. In this way, you’ll be able to check your emails on any desktop or mobile device using any client – Thunderbird, Outlook, Apple Mail, etc. With the IMAP email protocol, you’ll be able to examine the emails at your end, but they will be on the server at all times, whereas with POP3, all emails will be downloaded on the device, unless you choose a copy to be left on the mail server. In addition, you will be able to make use of lots of other handy options – calendars, contact groups, and so on, not to mention that if there’s a brief predicament with your Internet access, you can still check your email messages as they’ll be on your desktop or mobile device.
