Website e-mail

We do not have POP Mail accounts, but rather we forward mail to any existing account. Each website is allowed 30 forwarding accounts to 30 different addresses.

More simply, if you use "myname@aol.com" for your mail and you want to use "sales@mywebsite.com", all mail sent to sales@mywebsite.com would be redirected to your regular mail account at aol.com.

The sender has no idea that the mail was redirected, so they only know they sent mail to: sales@mywebsite.com. But you have the mail in your regular box.

This is particularly useful if you have Joe, Tina and John who all want mail accounts at your website. You can add joe@mywebsite.com, tina@mywebsite.com, and john@mywebsite.com keeping some continuity in your business. Additionally, when John quits, you can redirect John's mail to your own account and not lose any customers that were working directly with John.

The advantage of forwarding is that you can receive and manage all your mail from a single mail account. You can redirect mail for employees and partners to any mail address and not have to set up a different computer just to get business mail.

Mail setting are updated once each hour. So any changes can take up to 1 hour before mail is sent to a new location.

Mail Settings

To change mail setting click on the mailbox at the top of any management page.

Click the link "e-mail settings"

Simply fill in the forms as directed on the page. If you fill in all the forms and need more, click the update mail setting button at the bottom. When you return to the page again, there will be an additional 5 blank forms.

Sending Mail

Most people send mail from their primary mail account but if you need to send a mail, you can send mail from your website management console. Mail sent from the management console will be the same as mail sent from a business account such as me@mywebsite.com and will have no reference to any personal mail address from the forwarding.

The web based mail is also nice if you need to send a mail and don't have access to your mail account from the computer you are on.

To send a mail click on the mailbox at the top of any management page. Then click on Send outgoing e-mail. Just fill in the form and send it.

Why we don't have pop mail accounts and open mail servers

We are a small company with limited resources, that is how we can offer a system as extensive as we have for such a low price. e-Mail is such a problemmatic issue that even companies like AOL and Microsoft can't get a grip on dealing with spam and high volume fraudulent random mailers just making up names and bouncing mail off open relays.

But we can tell you that they are better than we are at it and can have dedicated people working on the problems 24/7. If we offered pop accounts we would never be able to give such a great deal on our hosting. We would be consumed with mail issues and our main product would suffer.

Our experience has been that the majority of businesses don't need pop accounts and most people have no idea how to set up mail programs on their computer because they use web based mail anyway. Our service caters to that market and not businesses that need 5000 mailboxes.

If you have a need for a pop account you can buy that service from an outside company of your choice and we can set up your mail exchange records to direct your mail to that service. Companies like google have better resources for mail and services that are extremly good for much less than we could offer it.
