Accessing e-mail accounts through webmail

This article describes shows the available options for webmail with links to more information.

What is webmail?

Webmail applications enable you to check your e-mail accounts by using your web browser. You can compose and read e-mail messages, maintain an address book, and do other common tasks. Third-party e-mail client applications, such as Thunderbird and Microsoft Outlook Express, generally provide more features than webmail applications, but also require more initial configuration.

A2 Hosting offers two control panels, and both include webmail:
