There are numerous web-based email service providers that you can use, but using an email with your own domain name will give you more credibility if you have a company, for example, not to mention that with web-based email services there are restrictions on the maximum size of the attachments that you can send or receive. If you use an email service that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP email delivery protocols, you won’t run into such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your PC to access your mailboxes, including Apple Mail, Thunderbird or Outlook. You can even set up a mailbox on your mobile phone. The difference between the two email protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed locally at your end, but remains on the email server, while with POP3, the message is downloaded on your personal computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.
