If email messages are an indivisible part of your communication with business colleagues or family members, you may be better off using an email address with your own domain name and an email provider that supports the IMAP and POP3 email delivery protocols, rather than using a web-based service that entails restrictions with regards to the maximum size of the attachments. Thus, you will be able to check your email messages on any desktop or mobile device using any software – Thunderbird, Apple Mail, Outlook, and so forth. With the IMAP email protocol, you’ll be able to view the email messages locally at your end, but they will be on the server all the time, whereas with the POP3 protocol, all email messages will be downloaded onto the device, unless you choose a copy to be saved on the email server. In addition, you will be able to take advantage of plenty of other handy options – contact groups, calendars, etc., not to mention that if there is a brief predicament with your Internet service, you can still see your emails since they’ll be on your desktop or mobile device.
