User Experience Design Example: NetEase mailbox Open POP3

When people are full, they have to do something and think something. NetEase, billed as China's largest free mailbox provider, began a campaign called "Pop3,imap" to open the door and remove the ads at the bottom of the mail. For POP3 I have always known this concept, at that time also has always thought NetEase mailbox POP3 is open, because in a person so many years of contact with the computer, POP3 Open is an essential quality mailbox. But until AH is in the company using Foxmail found that the original 126 mailbox does not support POP3 this really surprised me a little.

Because of the usual use of Gmail more, with Foxmail is to respond to the company's call to use, because it was very early on the use of NetEase mailbox, so has not been thrown away, plus the University of Education Network access to 126 is still relatively fast. I just never thought that this mailbox was castrated. Of course Azheng as has been used in NetEase mailbox users said his bad seems a bit excessive, but just express himself.

In fact, the original tiger is no teeth and claws, and now netease back to Ann. Tim Wing? Really publicity.

1. e-mail without POP3 is not a complete e-mail

I think AH should be able to count the earliest people in China, tell the truth that year also don't know what is the concept of the mailbox, only know that there is such a space on the internet, you can put some of your own things, so began to look for a crazy free mailbox, used to have NetEase, Sohu, Yahoo, Tom and so on, Almost at that time, all the free mailboxes have accounts, mailbox became the first heart of the Internet home, later on the popularity of Personal homepage, blog, to the current independent blog, it seems that they are looking for a destination on the Internet.

The early Yahoo mailbox only 6 m, NetEase but only 25M

Need to say is POP3 is accompanied by the birth of e-mail, POP3 belong to the TCP/IP protocol family, because the early server size is limited, then the mail server is a sender's role, is not responsible for storing data. So through Smtp/pop send and receive mail is originally the most basic mailbox products services, if not have POP3 that will be incomplete e-mail, no POP3 mailbox like a private message board, we can only poor use of the mailbox was castrated.

The following are the referenced contents: What is POP3/SMTP IMAP POP3, the full name is Post Office Protocol–version 3, the Post Office Protocol version 3. Primarily used to support the use of client remote management of e-mail messages on the server. The POP3 protocol, which provides SSL encryption, is called Pop3s. SMTP is a relatively simple text-based protocol. One or more recipients of a message are specified above it (in most cases, they are acknowledged to exist), and the message text is transmitted. You can easily test an SMTP server by using the Telnet program. SMTP uses TCP port 25. To determine an SMTP server for a given domain name, you need to use MX (Mail eXchange) DNS. IMAP is an application-tier protocol that is used to access messages on remote servers from local mail clients such as Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Foxmail, and Thunderbird. IMAP and POP3 are the most common Internet standard protocols for mail access. In fact, all modern mail clients and servers support both.

2. NetEase's mailbox early is has POP3 and the IMAP

It might have been nothing, but some netizens said that the early NetEase e-mail users can use POP3, I tried a bit of Azheng now is not, but to how early before the ability to use I do not know, I think the basic process of netease is this, the earliest due to the space to provide relatively small, NetEase itself also feel very nervous so support user users to use POP3, but later technology progress, there is enough server resources to provide services, and need to start a lot of money when it began to close the POP3, I want to turn off the POP3 function when NetEase must be wantonly to provide the size of their own as a gimmick to attract customers widely.

NetEase thought it was big enough to start to circle the money.
