As a client of Total Computer Solutions, you have the ability to create an unlimited number of
autoresponders for your email. An autoresponder is a pre-formatted
message that can be automatically-generated from your email accounts.
For example, you could have widget@yourdomain.com
automatically send a product brochure to anyone who sends you
an email to that address.Autoresponders are perfect for sending out information to those
that email you.
Clients of Total Computer Solutions can set up email forwarding for mail
accounts. For example, info@yourdomain.com can be automatically
forwarded to any email account. Many people use this feature
to set up an email address at their
domain
name and then have it forwarded to another email account,
such as Hotmail.
A "catch-all" email address allows you to "catch"
email from users who may have misspelled your email address, a
common problem on the Internet today. Every email that is not
addressed correctly gets delivered to an email address that you
specify. For example, if your client sends an email to inf@yourdomain.com
instead of to info@yourdomain.com, this email would be
properly delivered to you if you have set up your "catch-all"
email address.
If you require more mailboxes than come with your plan, don't
worry. You can add additional mailboxes to your current plan.
You can order additional mailboxes in increments of five, each containing 5MB of storage capacity.
You pay only $12.95/month
(billed quarterly.) Or, pay an annual fee of $130.00 and save
over $25.00.
All mailboxes receive 5MB of space, which includes items stored
in the deleted items and sent items folders. If you choose to
download your email to a desktop program such at Outlook, this
mailbox space will provide ample capacity for you. If you decide
to access your email strictly from the web, you may encounter
difficulties in the long run with your mailbox size. Additional space may be added, however.
If your mailbox reaches its maximum, any additional messages that
are sent to that mailbox will bounce back to the sender. These
messages will continue to do this until you reduce your mailbox
size under its quota. One way to do this would be to first clear
the contents of your deleted items and sent items folders. Or,
if you prefer, you may simply purchase additional space.
If you receive large attachments
or many emails each day, you may require more than 5MB of mailbox
storage space. You can easily upgrade a single mailbox by 25MB
for a total space of 30MB. You will pay only $12.95/month (billed
quarterly). Or pay an annual fee of $130.00 and save over $25.00!
Yes. All messages delivered must be smaller than
5MB. If you have a large attachment
to send, you may want to try to
zip
it using WinZip or a similar
zip
program.
You may send the same message to 50 people simultaneously. If
you wish to send a message to more than 50 people at once, you
can do so by either sending multiple emails and/or using a
coding
language to create a mailing script.
Total Computer Solutions limits the number of people that you can send
a single email to in an effort to minimize
SPAM.
If you choose to access your email via Outlook, Eudora, etc.,
Total Computer Solutions does not delete any of the "deleted items" that
you have downloaded. If, however, you choose to access and store
your email via the web console at "http://mail.domain.com", we
will occasionally delete items from the "Deleted Items" folder
without prior notification. This only refers to messages in the
"Deleted Items" folder.
To ensure that you do not lose any necessary email, move critical
items out of your "Deleted Items" folder on a regular basis. You
may choose to create a special folder in your Inbox to keep these
messages in. Simply login to your mailbox, go to "Folders" and
choose the "Create Folder" button.
Please note: Any mail you keep stored on our email server, including
deleted and sent items, rather than downloading it to Outlook,
Eudora, etc., counts against the email quota associated with your
hosting plan.
Yes, you can host your email account at another location besides
our mail servers. To do this you will need to have the Mail (MX)
record changed for that
domain
so that it points
to the correct mail
IP
address.
No. Due to
SPAM
concerns, we do not support mailing lists.
