Frequently Asked Questions

What do you mean by Email Mailbox?

We define an email mailbox as a separate email account that you can login to with a username and password, it has at least one email address assigned to it and is different from an email alias and a group mailbox.

Am I limited to a 5GB mailbox or can I upgrade to a larger one?

We have three sizes of mailbox, 5GB, 10GB and 15GB, if you manage your mail then 5GB should be enough for many years to come, but should the need arise you can upgrade to a larger one and we will advise you at the time.

I already have a domain name can I transfer it to you?

If you already have a domain name you can transfer it into our managed service and we will extend your registration by 1 year as part of the package, unless you want us to register a new domain name for you anyway.

What email client should or can I use?

Our email service is provisioned with IMAP4, POP3 and a fantastic webmail client. You can use any email client software you want on any smartphone or PC, or you can use the webmail client via any current web browser. We recommend using IMAP4 and webmail as it allows you to use multiple devices with a single mailbox and they all stay in sync (POP3 downloads and removes your email from the server mailbox).

What do you mean by Email Alias?

An email alias is an email address which is different to the default email address of your mailbox, but is delivered to that mailbox

What do you mean by Group Forwarding?

Group forwarding is where you have an email address which delivers the same received message to every member of the group. For example sales@yourdomain.com could deliver sales enquiries to every member of your sales team. It’s an optional service and you can sign up for group forwarders here.

Can I sync the calendar with my phone?

Our calendar system uses the industry standard calendar synchronisation system called WebCal, and the settings to use are available in your webmail mailbox.

What are your support hours?

Office hours support is provided Monday-Friday from 09:00 to 17:00. 24/7 support is provided every hour of every day, including bank holidays.
