IMAP and SMTP settings

It’s important to consider whether you want to use POP3 or IMAP. Here’s a brief explanation:

With IMAP, emails are stored on our servers. This means you always have a backup of your email, you can access your mail from anywhere in the world via webmail, and use multiple devices at the same time. However, the storage space used by your emails does count toward the total storage limit of your hosting package.

With POP3, emails are downloaded and stored on your device (such as your computer). The emails are not stored on our servers. This means that if your device is damaged or, for example, stolen, your emails may be permanently lost. However, this does save space in your hosting package.

You’ll need the following information to set up your email:

 

Username Your mailadress
Password Your mailbox's password
Incoming server web1.litehosting.nl
Type POP3 IMAP
SSL Yes Yes
Port 995 993
Outgoing Server web1.litehosting.nl
SSL Yes
Port 587 Or 465
Authentication Yes
