I finally got rid of SPAM!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif)

I just cancelled my MSN account and my hotmail account and got my own domain's mail server up and running! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif)

I moved my hosting to Esphinx.net and got a good deal.

that's funny.

my stuff works, but their page isn't.
Weird. I have to tell you, their customer support has been pretty outstanding.
They usually answer questions within an hour-regardless the day or time.

Seanery - Just noticed that you updated the location on your profile. Did you move? or ??????

Hate to break it to you...but I get just about as much spam on my own servers as I do on my public (i.e. Yahoo) accounts.

If you ever use your address on certain sites, you're doomed forever. Our generic "info" and "jobs" accounts at the office just get pounded with spam, every day. Any "admin" or "webmaster" accounts are futile to keep spam-free also.

Well Seanery... I ended up pushing a domain I've had for a while over there...

www.my914-6.com

I transfered my conversion project from my work server over there.

Now I can post all my 914 pictures.

Thanks for the lead. $60 a year for 1 gig of storage, e-mail, ftp, etc. Not bad at all.

Regards,

K

Cool,

Glad I could help!

I'm very happy so far. You have access to your email on the web too.

webmail.my914-6.com (no www in front).

I get over a hundred pieces of spam every day on my rennlist.com email account.

I've learned that once the spammers find your domain, they're going to hammer the hell out of it. That's why I NEVER use my other email address for vendors or stuff. Nor do I post it on web-boards, etc.

Kellzy, who are you using as a hosting service?

see the top of the thread...

Per Seannery's recommendation...

www.esphinx.net

It was VERY simple to transfer my domain over to their name servers.

It has a very nice web-based graphical administrator interface to set up unlimited e-mails, mail groups, etc.


Everything was ordered, paid for, up and running, and transferred over in less than 24 hours.
