Email
When a domain name is set up for your account, you can receive email of the form username@yourdomain.com. POP3 accounts allow you to retrieve emails addressed to your new site from email programs such as MS Outlook, Netscape Messenger, and Eudora. We also have an authenticated SMTP mailer so you can send mail securely from your new domain.

Email forwarding is also provided. Email forwarding allows messages sent to your new domain to forward to another account that you may already have at your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or employer.

Two POP3 email accounts and an unlimited number of email forwarding accounts are provided with the Basic Plan. Additional POP3 email accounts can be purchased for $12 per year.

Web-based email access is provided free of charge for all POP3 accounts.


Data Transfer
The amount of data transferred from your website to users that browse your website is limited because your website is located on a computer and network connection that is shared among different web sites and services. The amount of data tranferred is limited to 2 GB/month with the Basic Plan and 10 GB/month with the Premium Plan.

Roughly, this means that 2 GB/month can handle approximately 500,000-750,000 hits per month and 10 GB/month can handle approximately 2,500,000-3,750,000 hits per month depending on amount of images and page size. Additional data transferred from your site will incur a small charge.


Disk Storage
Disk storage space refers to the amount of server hard disk space your website can use. This space is used to store files such as html documents, images, email messages, etc. Each hosting plan includes a specific amount of disk space your website can use. Additional space can be purchased for any plan in 50 MB blocks at a cost of $5 per month.
