There are plenty of web-based mail service providers that you can use, but having an email with your own domain name will grant you more credibility if you are running a business, for example, not to mention that with web-based email services there are restrictions on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that offers support for the POP3 and IMAP email retrieval protocols, you won’t face such problems and you’ll be able to use any software program on your PC to access your email accounts, including Outlook, Thunderbird or Apple Mail. 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 at your end, but remains on the email server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded to your computer, unless you set up the program in such a way as to save a copy on the server.
