Web-mail:
You have 3 choices of programs to read/send
e-mail from ANY computer on the internet without using the e-mail program that
is on that computer as at work, school, library, etc. This page explains the 3 web e-mail
reader programs on your site with links for
detailed information -

Outlook: This page tells you how to set up on your
computer to download your e-mail for
permanent storage REMEMBER when your e-mail box is FULL you cannot receive
e-mails and they will get a "FULL" error. We give you much larger e-mail
boxes than others but there is still a limit. click here
Form-mailer: Why a mail to contact us
form-mailer is very important to have on your
site. The “mailto:” method relies on
the visitors' e-mail software. If a visitor has no e-mail software installed
(libraries, universities, train stations, airports, internet cafe, schools, etc),
or has an incompatible
e-mail program to the "mailto:" command on their computer, you will not receive
the message the visitor is trying to send to you.
User feedback is very important. Think of how
someone having trouble with your site or product
must feel about your services if he can't
contact you, or gets an error message after
spending half an hour describing the problem he
is having.
We spent two years finding and modifying
the form-mail script we install on our web
sites, it is the ONLY one we know that sends the
visitor a COPY of their submittal, which to me
is very important as I forget what I tell
someone after hitting the submit button, this
also confirms that the visitor entered their
e-mail address correctly.
SpamAssassin: Is available through your Cpanel, we have found this to be 98%
effective and after testing can turn to "discard" spam instead of moving it to
another folder on the server. The spam e-mails are kept on the server for
you to look at and just empty the folder or it just discards them, YOU DO NOT
DOWNLOAD THEM INTO YOUR COMPUTER saving you a lot of time and hassle. For
