E-mail

• POP3
  POP3S (POP3 over SSL) POP3S is a secure version of POP3. When email data is transferred from our server to your computer, the data crosses the public internet and may be accessed by outsiders. With POP3S the data is encrypted, so even if someone intercepts your email, the content of the message will be unreadable.
• IMAPS (IMAP over SSL) Your email is stored on a server in our secure data center. When you send and receive email, the data is sent over the public internet and is vulnerable to security breaches. With IMAPS the data is encrypted even if someone intercepts your email they will be unable to read it.
• Webmail
• Blackberry Push Email
• SMTP Allows emails to be sent through a SMTP server (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). Most email systems that send mail over the Internet use SMTP to send messages from one server to another; the messages can then be retrieved with an email client using either POP or IMAP.

• SSL (Secure Socket Layer) allows the server to establish a secure connection with the user’s browser, ensuring that all the data (such as credit card information) transferred between server and user is encrypted. The higher-end Aplus.Net plans offer a shared SSL certificate. You may purchase your own private SSL certificate as well.
