Yes - I know it can be done; I'm just looking for recommendations
on companies that provide e-mail services. Swishmail.com is
one, for example; they host mail for your domain and let you
configure your own accounts and check e-mail via the web or POP.
I just wanted to see if anyone else had any experience with
other services that might be less expensive and/or have better
service.
BTW, I'm on cable modem and Roadrunner won't manage e-mail for my
domain unless I change to a business account. The ISP that
houses our co-lo box is a small outfit and they don't have a
web-based administration for setting up accounts or checking
mail. You have to call them for every change and can only
access your mail with a POP client. That is why we resorted to
running our own mail server in the first place, but we just
can't keep the box up 100% of the time.
Sorry my question was confusing, but I appreciate you taking the
time to respond.
