What is POP email?

PinkStone's POP Email are customizable email accounts that allow domain owners to set up web-based mailboxes using their domain name, such as sales@mydomain.com. Accessible on the web from anywhere, they are advertising-free with plenty of storage space for large files and documents. You can also forward any POP Email address to any other Email address.

 

Why use POP Email?

PinkStone's POP Email provides the following benefits:

  • More professional than free email address
  • Easier for people to associate your email to your organization
  • Web based access (check your email from anywhere)
  • High degree of versatility
  • Cost effective
  • No advertising
  • Spam and antivirus protection

Domain-based email is more professional

Your email address is like your calling card in someone's mailbox. It’s a small but important detail that helps make your business or organization look bonafide and professional. PinkStone's paid email services give users an elegant, simple, and effective solution to elevate their organization's online image, as well as allowing them more flexibility and control over their email functionality.

Why is POP email better than free email?

Free email accounts do not provide the same professionalism, security, and control as paid email. Their web pages are often covered with advertisements and upsell gimmicks. Since free email providers are constantly trying to upgrade customers to their paid email solutions, they constantly change the benefits offered. With PinkStone POP Email, account holders will never have to worry about one day losing important features. Everything you need is always there, and we consistently implement upgrades and improvements.

PinkStone POP Paks make email cost effective

Each PinkStone POP Pak provides 10 email accounts for your domain name. Domain owners can purchase as many POP Paks as they require. The PinkStone price is always competitive and billed annually for added management simplicity.

POP Email FAQ

What is the difference between email forwarding and an actual POP3 email account?

Basically, email forwarding just redirects an email written to your domain name (i.e. sales@mycompanyname.com) to a true email box/account (i.e. Johndoe@hotmail.com).
With a POP3 email account, the email sent to your domain name (i.e. sales@mycompanyname.com) will go into your domain name's in-box, allowing you to reply from the same email address.

How much is a POP email account on my domain name?
We sell POP3 email boxes by packages of 10 called Email Paks. Each Email Pak is per year per domain name (that means you get to use the entire Email Pak under one domain name at a time).

All I need is one POP email account, can I buy just one?
If you just need one, buy an Email Pak and use only one mailbox.

Can I split the mailboxes I get with one Email Pak into several for multiple domains?
Ex: 5 mailboxes for example.com and 5 mailboxes for example.net.
No, each Email Pak is purchased and managed from only one domain at a time.

I purchased an Email Pak and have set up a user. How do I set-up my email software (email client, like Microsoft Outlook or Netscape)?
These are the settings you will need to use:

  • Name/Display Name: Your name
    (i.e. John Doe or ACME Sales)

  • email address: Alias-you-chose@your-domain-name.com
    (i.e. john@thedoes.com or sales@acme.com)

  • Incoming email server type: POP (not IMAP)

  • Incoming mail (POP) server: pop.your-domain-name.com
    (i.e. pop.thedoes.com or pop.acme.com)

  • Outgoing mail (SMTP) server: smtp.your-domain-name.com
    (i.e. smtp.thedoes.com or smtp.acme.com)

  • Account/user ID/name: alias-you-chose@your-domain-name.com
    (i.e. john@thedoes.com or sales@acme.com)

  • Account/user Password: password-you-chose (case sensitive. This is optional, if you don't want to have to type in this password every time you send or receive mail)

  • Account Name: Enter what you would like to identify this account
    (i.e. thedoes.com POP mail or acme.com POP mail)
