UK Email Hosting

Email hosting provides professional email addresses using your own domain name. Instead of hosting a website, the service is focused specifically on providing mailboxes for sending and receiving email. This is useful when your website is hosted elsewhere but you want professional email on your own domain.

Farbyte Email Hosting includes professional email using your own domain, IMAP, POP3, authenticated SMTP and webmail. The service also includes spam protection and the ability to manage your email and domain settings through the hosting platform.

Yes. Farbyte Email Hosting is designed for email using your own domain. You can create addresses such as [email protected] rather than using a generic email address. If you need a domain, you can also register or transfer one during checkout.

Yes. You can use your email account on computers, phones, tablets and other compatible devices. Farbyte supports standard IMAP and POP3 protocols for receiving email and SMTP for sending messages.

Yes. Farbyte Email Hosting uses standard email protocols, so you can configure compatible email applications such as Microsoft Outlook, Apple Mail and Thunderbird using IMAP or POP3 for incoming mail and SMTP for outgoing mail.

Yes. Webmail is included with Farbyte Email Hosting. You can access your mailbox through a web browser when you don’t have your usual email application or device available.

IMAP keeps your mailbox synchronised with the mail server, making it generally more suitable when you use multiple devices. POP3 downloads messages to an email application and is more suited to situations where mail is primarily accessed from one device. Farbyte supports both protocols.

You can send email using authenticated SMTP. This allows compatible email applications such as Outlook, Apple Mail and Thunderbird to send messages through the Farbyte email service.

The number of mailboxes depends on your chosen plan. Personal includes 5 mailboxes, Family includes 15, Professional includes 25 and Business includes 50 mailboxes. Each mailbox can be used as a separate email address.

Storage depends on your chosen plan. Personal includes 750 MB, Family 2,250 MB, Professional 3,750 MB and Business 7,500 MB of email storage.

The number of domains depends on your plan. Personal supports 1 domain, Family 2 domains, Professional 3 domains and Business 5 domains. This makes the larger plans suitable for customers who need email for multiple domains.

Yes. Email Hosting is specifically designed for customers who need email without website hosting. Your website can remain hosted with another provider while your domain’s email is handled by Farbyte.

If your website is already hosted elsewhere and you only need professional email, Email Hosting may be the more appropriate service. If you need both website and email hosting, Farbyte Web Hosting or Business Hosting may provide better value by combining both services in one account.

Yes. Farbyte Email Hosting includes spam protection to help reduce unwanted messages and keep your mailbox more manageable.

Yes. Each Email Hosting plan has an hourly sending limit. Personal allows up to 75 messages per hour, Family 150, Professional 300 and Business 600. These limits are designed for normal email use rather than bulk email campaigns.

Email Hosting is intended for normal mailbox use rather than high-volume bulk email delivery. The plans have defined hourly sending limits, so dedicated email marketing or bulk-mail services may be more appropriate for large mailing campaigns.

Yes. Each plan provides a defined number of mailboxes, allowing you to create separate addresses for different people. For example, a business could create addresses such as sales@, accounts@ and support@ using its own domain.

No. Email Hosting is designed specifically for email and does not include website hosting. If you need to host a website as well as email, see our Web Hosting or Business Hosting services.
