How webmail works
Even 30 years later, e-mail is still an important means of communication, both for personal and business use. With email, you can send and receive official documents. Communicate with anyone and any organization in the world for free. Receive your favorite newsletters and much more. Where you use your email address matters for a number of reasons. There are certain advantages and disadvantages to using an online website, i.e. webmail, and a local email program. In this blog post, we will look into these issues and learn what exactly webmail can do.
How does the webmail work?
The webmail is a direct connection through a website in your favorite internet browser to our mail server. So here you can use all the features that are available to you with the use of an email address at MijnHostingPartner.nl. The webmail is easily accessible from any device that has access to an internet browser. So, you could even open it with a SmartTV, although it wouldn't make much sense to write an email with a remote control.
If you want to access the webmail, you can go to the following link in any internet browser and log in with your created email address:
https://webmail.mijnhostingpartner.nl
So, once you have created an email address at MijnHostingPartner.nl, you can simply log in and access your email anytime, anywhere. Through the browser, you can then also set that the notifications are allowed. This way, you can ensure that new email messages or calendar entries are displayed on the computer.
Advantages of using webmail
The biggest advantage of webmail is that it gives you access to a number of additional tools that are often not available to you with an email program that you run locally on a device. You'll have access to an online agenda, tasks and you'll be able to communicate with your team via a chat within the domain name. In addition, you'll also have access to all your messages and everything related to the email account. You can also set up automatic replies and configure many other advanced settings in your email hosting.
Being able to access your email anytime, anywhere is also an important benefit of using your email address through webmail. You don't need to install or configure anything else to use your email address. All you have to do is log in with your email address.
Linking to a local email program
If you want to use a local email program, this is not a problem. You can use both the webmail and any number of local mail programs. So you can easily set the email address locally on your laptop, on your phone, and through the desktop, with the option to read the emails through the webmail as well.
If you want to use the email address in multiple places, you just need to make sure that you set it up in the local programs with an IMAP connection. This supports this better than a POP connection. Search our knowledge base for your email program. We have an extensive collection of articles that you can use to set up your email.
Want even better collaboration and push messages and calendar synchronization, then also look at the possibility of an Exchange account. For an additional cost, this can be set up on any device, with instant notifications. Request more information via a ticket, or order directly from the customer panel.
Combine with a local app on a phone only
Personally, I use the webmail on the computer for my personal and business mails that I have on my own domains, and then set the email address in my favorite mobile app Spark. This way you can quickly organize the incoming mails and updates. And leave the real work when you have a physical keyboard. It's definitely nicer than a touchscreen. That's been my experience. Email notifications on your phone can be a bit invasive of your privacy, of course, but at the same time they're useful when something's going on or you're expecting an email you can't miss.
