There are numerous web-based email providers that you can use, but using an email account with your own personal domain name will provide you with more credibility if you are running a company, for instance, not to mention that with web-based services there are restrictions on the size of the attachments that you can receive or send. If you use an email service that supports the IMAP and POP3 email delivery protocols, you won’t encounter such problems and you’ll be able to use any program on your personal computer 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 protocols is that with IMAP, an email message is displayed at your end, but remains on the mail server, whereas with POP3, the message is downloaded on your computer, unless you configure the program in such a way as to store a copy on the server.
