Email

One advantage of having your own domain is that you can have as many email address as you like. Even with our basic domain hosting service, we allow you to take advantage of this. Mail can be held on our POP3 servers or forwarded to existing mail accounts you may have elsewhere (the advantage of the latter is that you will not have to alter the mail server configuration in your email reader).

You may specify up to 10 individual addresses (or 50 with advanced hosting) and then a 'catch-all' each of which can be kept in a local POP3 mailbox (and thus can be collected from anywhere) or forwarded elsewhere. The 'catch-all' box is multi-drop allowing suitable mail software to sort it into different mail boxes at your end. We recommend the NetManager as a mail server.

An example domain configuration is:

Email addressAction
fred@domain.co.ukKept in local POP3 box
sales@domain.co.ukForwarded to pub.sales@isp.net
peter@domain.co.ukForwarded to peter.piper@otherisp.com
Catch-all
xxx@domain.co.uk
Forwarded to xxx@ourname.something.net

Email By Fax

For customers who want a website and email address, but do not have a computer or need to receive emails immediately without having to go on-line (e.g. taxi firms), we offer an email-by-fax service. Emails received are stripped of any attachments before being faxed to you. To use the email-by-fax service, you purchase a number of fax credits (10p each - minimum purchase 1000). There is no set up cost. Each fax sent uses one credit. A banner is printed at the bottom of each fax showing number of credits used and remaining.

This service is ideal when combined with a reply form on a website.
