Email Hosting 

The key email service we provide is our Advanced Mailbox:

Advanced mailboxes combine every feature you need for professional email:

• Virus scanning

• Spam filtering

• 100 MB mailbox space - ideal for large attachments

• Individual mailbox control panel

• Industry-standard POP3

• Roaming SMTP 

Virus scanning 

Using respected, industry-leading virus scanning software, our mail servers prevent harmful email from reaching your computer. Accurate interception is ensured by regular, automatic updates of both the scanning engine and the virus definition file.

Viruses are intercepted in real-time, following heuristic scanning of all inbound and outbound email, to identify and remove suspect attachments and malformed messages. Even archived files are searched, ensuring your email is trustworthy.

Spam filtering 

Multi-level, Bayesian spam filtering traps unwanted, unsolicited emails. Each email is checked against a set of criteria and depending on your chosen filter strength, is determined to be spam or legitimate email. You choose whether the filter adds "SPAM" to the front of suspect emails' subject lines, or deletes the email entirely. 

Please note: The maximum capacity of Advanced mailboxes is 100 MB, with a message count limit of 5000.

POP3 Addresses

We can also provide unlimited numbers of POP3 email mailboxes and email forwarders. (These are unprotected but emails received can be forwarded to your Advanced Mailbox for interception of viruses and spam... common forwarders are info@ enquiries@ sales@ email addresses.)
