Yeah...you get what you pay for. We host with Orcsweb and the support is phenomenal. We pay a good chunk though, primarily due to the amount of traffic. Sites like ASP.net and the Microsoft TechNet and MSDN blogs are all hosted at Orcsweb.

I have a website hosted for about $5/month with "unlimited" mailboxes. It's a typical mega-cheap-hosting arrangement - they all sell exactly the same thing - a domain on a shared server with exactly the same software, all services running on the same machine. They resell the offerings of someone else and provide "support" in name only. For instance, if there's a problem with email they say "we'll look into it" and forward a ticket to the wholesale provider. About the 1/2 the time you get no real resolution. Spam prevention is marginal, speed is poor, and glitches frequent. I'm fed up. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rod Trent" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "NT System Admin Issues" <ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2008 12:26 PM Subject: RE: Looking for a very good Email provider > You can get a website hosted with 50 free email addys for around $9.99 > per > month in some places. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jim McAtee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2008 2:22 PM > To: NT System Admin Issues > Subject: Looking for a very good Email provider > > This is for a personal domain with a handful of mailboxes.
