I have watched the screencast on domains etc and I sort of get it, but I have a website for a client that already has email and a server and things but I have to transfer it. basicly the site is hosted on the old developers server and the email is on one of my clients just as an email host(eclipse). so I need to make the domain point to a new server and the email to point from that sever to eclipse without any disruption to the website and especially the email. because I can't afford to make any mistake on this I am asking for the best way to do this.
Do I just change the records on the domain(123reg) and the new server so that it all points to the new server then find the email records(MX or A, can't remember) and get the email server pointing to there after? where do I find these records? and will it cause disruption to the email because of routers and stuff updating as said in the screecast or is that just for new domains?
I have a WHM reseller, and am hosting my cousin's site. He wants all of his databases and info transferred to another hosting account he has with me. How can I do that for him, without losing anything and what have you?
I have been looking at the offers in the Web Hosting Talk->Advertising Forums->Web Hosting Offers->Dedicated Hosting Offers forum and I cannot find any explanation for the transfer value.
When an advertiser says 10Tb Transfer (ignore case, as I've seen an advert where it is 10TB in the subject and 10Tb in the body)
Anyway, my question, is the 10Tb in bits or bytes (cannot determine from the case, already established inconsistencies here)
Also, over what period of time is the 10T bits/bytes, E.G. is is that amount of data per day, week, month, year etc.
I'm using godaddy windows hosting from last month. my 2 sites are hosted since now. but for the last 4-5 days the sites are very slow. sometimes its not generating the pages at all. i contacted godaddy support but they can't give any solution. So can you suggest a good windows hosting.
i need a reliable asp.net 3.5 supported hosting with domain/hosting transfer
Php appication like wordpress, joomla supported, also php add-on supported(i experienced this problem at godaddy win hosting, it doesn't support php apps automatic installation & doesn't supprot addons, i can't modify any theme/plugins )
fast & reliable
need to host multisites
asp.net 3.5, sql server 2008
& other things which is needed in win hosting & a good hosting provider
I am disappointed on the option provide to me by IX webhosting to resolved my issue.
Summary:
1. My hosting and domain was handle by a previous staff which is charge to a CC belong to that staff. 2. The staff was fired and he filled a chargeback with his CC without me knowing it on the hosting. 3. Account was then suspended and there isn't anything that I can do about it.
Option left for me: 1. Nothing that IX webhosting is able to do beside asking me to recontact my ex staff to contact his bank which is not possible (the case was closed by the bank according to my ex staff when i was able to contact him).
2. Spending another 1 - 2 year time to rebuilt another website to bring in traffic since the url and hosting are frozen by IX webhosting.
3. Filled a complain to complain board and point this problem out to public where an admin or account making payment for URL and hosting can screwed up the company at any one point while hosting with IX webhosting.
I know you get what you pay for with hosting, but with the ridiculous overselling going on I am finding it hard to work out how much bandwidth I can genuinely expect to get with about 500MB space and 99%+ (preferably more like 99.5%) uptime for $5/month.
I will be using all this bandwidth for hosting legal mp3s (sanctioned for promotional use by labels and artists), and would prefer the host to be based in the US or UK.
I'm working on transferring my Hostings to a new server, but ran into some problems.
Transferring the data from one Plesk 12 server to another works quite well using the migration manager, although you have to create the service plans by hand as well as you need to work through the server configuration parameters.
After re-creating the service plans I wanted to link and sync them to the subscriptions, but unfortunately I have no success to do so, because everytime I try to get them in sync, it tells me that Apache ASP support is enabled for the subscription and needs to be disabled. Plesk then tells me, the setting is disabled, but next time you try to sync the subscription... ASP is back enabled.
Problem is that on the old server I had Apache ASP enabled and used it in my hostings.
I tried to solve the problem using the command line tools, but "./subscription -u domain.name -asp false" returns "SUCCESS: Update of domain 'domain.name' completed.", but you can guess, same problem.
As a last resort I disabled Apache ASP support for my hostings on the old server, deleted everything on the new one and I got no warnings before migrating about the missing ASP feature.
But unfortunately this procedure ended up with the same problem as before.
Is there a way to remove the ASP support from the existing subscriptions?
I have a dedicated server currently hosted over by Aplus.NET
I have a 3000 GB Monthly Transfer limit and we have been going over this limit for the past few months. This has resulted in a large sum of overage fees.
I am looking to go to another hosting company that is just as good as Aplus.NET, if not better... with a better traffic rate. A friend told me about Choopa.com and I wanted to know how good of a company they were. What are some other top reliable hosting companies with premium servers and that specialize in unmetered bandwidth?
i looking for the servers (powerfull and cheap) i take this post in vps forum 2 day's ago but i understand that it is better for me to take the post in dedicated forum my friend's : 1-vpn server(with many ip)-->with high transfer + good performance(for start)
2-server for starting image hosting (with high or unlimited transfer + 100mbps )+atleast 50_60gb h.d.d
The company I currently work for relies on our email quite a bit. We currently host our email through the same company that hosts our website, which as we all know, is common practise. However, we've found that our web host's mail servers are being blocked by a few big name spam filters (we're on a shared host, it was someone else on the box that caused the problem we're told), which means that a few of our clients and suppliers can't get email to us properly.
Our shop is cross platform Windows and Mac, and we have people who use a lot of different email clients (Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, etc). I was wondering if anyone knows a good email host. We're looking for a place with no (or very high) limit on emails sent and received a day, a host that has a good control panel for managing mail, and takes a proactive approach to monitoring and removing their servers from spam filters. Our management also wants 24/7 live support, or I would've gone with Google Apps.
I am setting up a small site for my brother's wife and I am looking for a ASP.Net webhost + Email.
1st off does anyone know if Network Solutions offers ASP.Net 2.0 webhosting? He was looking at using them so I have to consider this.
2nd Question. His wife has a palm smartphone that has POP mail. What would you suggest doing so that she can get her email on a laptop and phone. Email forwarding? Do most hosts provide a service like this.
Any other good large hosting companies that you can recommend?
for the past couple of years NearlyFreeSpeech.NET's "pay as you go" hosting system has been good to me, but I've decided I want to host email on my domains without using privacyware like Google. Unfortunately, NearlyFreeSpeech does not support email hosting.
I found a number of hosts, and it seems like MailSnare or FastMail is a good choice.
Perhaps MailTrust also, but their 100% uptime guarantee seems dodgy... any input on that?
The alternative is I drop NearlyFreeSpeech and switch to a host like 1&1 for $4/mo. Can you suggest any other cheapie legitimate hosts along those lines? And would you suggest switching hosts or paying out to a dedicated mail host as mentioned above?
I have created 4 websites for a client, 3 of them are new and one is to replace and existing website. The 4 websites use a single database and content management system and the 3 new ones are hosted by my normal web host.
The existing website is hosted by a different host and I was going to simple change the Nameservers to my normal host so that they are all on the same server. However, my client is quite concerned about the effect that this will have on his email. He has mobile email and remote outlook and I think some security guarantees from this current host (which is BT).
Does anyone know if it possible to change the Nameservers for the website but have the emails still running though the original host (BT)?
I am looking for a good hosting solution for a client of ours. Requirements are quite simple. Need direction really on who to go for.
We need:35 mailboxes Dedicated new IP address OK with POP3 service, no MS exchange hosting needed. Can work with Linux hosting as well. 50MB per mailbox space
What we plan to do is create an MX record for the domain and point it to the provider. That would in turn point to the IP where all the mailboxes reside. The web hosting is already taken care of at a company called Host Depot based in Florida.
Its that simple. I am having trouble looking for a good, trustworthy and reliable provider for this.
Rackspace came back to us qouting $2.80 per mailbox per month but no dedicated IP. Also considered Enom but they are qouting $9.95 per mailbox.
Looking forward to your recommendations. Any questions?
I work for a company who is wanting to provide email accounts for about 300 users. There doesn't need to be any bells or whistles, only the ability to send and receive email. In fact, there probably won't be an enormous amount of activity on the accounts, though it could grow in time.
I'm a newbie at this and am unaware of all the available options. My first thought was to consider web hosting.
It seems like there are a hundred companies out there offering unlimited mailboxes for shared web hosting accounts. After some investigation, I saw that alot of these companies limit the sent emails to 250 an hour. This seems too low for comfort.
I started looking at VPS and Dedicated Servers and they seem to be a little more reasonable. Most of these hosting companies offered some type of squirrel mail or imp client, which would work fine.
Am I heading down the right track using a VPS or Dedicated Server at a company like inmotion? Did I misunderstand the 250 per hour limit? Could a shared hosting plan work comfortably for 300 active email accounts?
I've heard Exchange and Google Apps are popular, but after a cursory glance, they seem quite expensive for our needs (but maybe someone can explain why they are worth a closer look).
I want to send bulk emails. I need a webhosting that can send 1 million emails in one go. It should have a static IP and should be cost effective. I have low budget.
I would like to help my friend to host his email service on my VPS server. His current shared web hosting unfortunately has a quota limit on the number of emails he can send each hour, which is very inconvenient for him.
I know how to modify the MX record of my friend's domain in his current web host using Cpanel, but I don't know how to set up my server to accommodate his email service. I'd appreciate if anyone can teach me how to do it. My server also has Cpanel/WHM installed.
I have a few servers that host my sites, but managing the mail servers has been a pain. The configuration files are arcane and sometimes I just can't figure out why a mail doesn't show up for half an hour or more.
I looked at FuseMail but read recent reviews of them having delayed delivery and account throttling issues... so I ruled that out.
MailTrust looks clean so far, and I can do $30 per month for 10 mailboxes.
I am making a disposable email service website as a side project right now. I am looking for a good hosting provider right now to get this started off. Any suggestions? Anyone do this before and tell me who the good ones to use are? Any companies to definitely not use?
I represent a small company ~10 users, that has a domain name registered with a company like godaddy. The domain is not hosted as yet.
I would like to find a good service provider that can provide us with email hosting, i.e. we would like to get 5 email accounts with 5GB or more, larger the better.
The users will be accessing the email through Outlook and if possible through webmail.
Over time, we would like to host the website and build a site as well but that is not an immediate need
Finally, the hosting company should have good customer service.
I have just recently purchased a shared hosting package and am having some trouble with my email. I have set it up to work with Microsoft Outlook 2003 and it works perfectly when it comes to SENDING emails. Sadly, it doesn't work at all when RECEIVING emails comes into play.
The incoming server is set to port 110. And I'm pretty sure my incoming server address is correct because, well, Outlook says it's correct :p
We are a small non-profit (High School PTA) and would like to sending weekly newsletters to our parents who are paid members and have provided an email address on their membership forms. Although we have about 2000 members, our list is about 800 subscribers. We expect this to max out at about 1500 over the next year or two. The newsletter is produced in MS Publisher and is sent as an ‘email message’ through outlook. Looked at email services – afford them right now.
I am looking for a hosting company/service that will allow:
1. Maximum deliverability -we have issues with Comcast and AOL. Surprisingly, yahoo and hotmail have been fine.
2. We do not want opt-in – we want to be able to add addresses. We tried yahoo groups but I kept battling parents who would let invitations expire and ask that I resend or those who requested that I ‘just’ add them because they had already provided their address or because are not email savvy enough to follow the links! Yahoo groups limits the number of address on their ‘free’ list and you can add only 10 members per day. This was fine when we had only 100-200 but cannot do this with a growing list.
3. Need to way to ‘manage’ the list – meaning see which email address received the newsletters successfully, which ones got rejected by individual’s filter, which ones were blocked by the providers, email address which are no longer valid, etc. Currently, I have no way (that I know of) to get this information. I do not know PHP scripts or cgi-bin scripts – am willing to learn if there is a simple tutorial here on the forum.
I have a VPS that runs cPanel/WHM and have been receiving a few enquiries where clients want to move only their email hosting to me. Most of them have small, static, web sites and seem happy with that.
Is this possible? If yes, I would appreciate some pointers on how to go about setting it up.
Our school was just notified that our school district is now paperless. School is starting in a week, and while we may have a one month grace period to get some info out to parents on paper, we need to pull somthing together quickly. It seems that what we need are the ability to post all our info on a website accessible to our school community, as well as the ability to send broadcast emails to our school community. I am with the PTO and we have lots of activities to promote, support to solicit, etc.
I have found lots of web hosting solutions. I have heard some in our district talk about Yahoo Site Builder, but have not found pro/con discussions on this provider. Can someone point me in the right direction to get some good feedback on Yahoo? There are so many options out there it is hard to know what to go with. We are looking for free to low cost options, with growth potential.
I also have not found anyone offering web hosting along with email broadcasting - is this correct? I have found some separate options for web based email broadcasting - ennect.com? Until we get our own server at our school my thought was that this would give us what we need without a lot of investment? Wondering if someone can point me in the right direction here too.
We are in need of a quick solution for now, but also want the option to ease into a long term solution - probably a server at the school providing database, web server, email server.
I'm experiencing some issues that I thought were something normal, or something that you could expect when working like this, but I think that it is something that should NOT happen.
We own a dedicated server, where we host some sites we develop (around 80 right now). We usually host both email and web page in the same server, but recently we had two customers who wanted to host email in a different place. The first one has its own server with proxy, and the second one is waiting the previous company to change DNS values.
The problem shows when we try to send an email from ANY domain hosted in our server, to one of these domains. From Outlook, the error is something like "no such user found", but the REAL problem comes when a PHP script (usually a contact form) tries to send the email. This mails get simply lost, and the customer never receives them.
My question is: What do I configure, or how do I do so my webserver looks for the real DNS, instead of trying to send the mail directly to the local domain?
I am looking for a host for my emails, i have about 25 and another 15 forwarders and was wandering if anyone can tell me how is the google email hosting service, i am referring to the free service. Were any emails lost? Does the service decides on it's what is spam and waht is not or can i configurate that? Is the lack of customer service noticable?
