In today’s busy world, we know that you need your email instantly wherever you are. That’s why we’ve developed our email solutions to give you all the flexibility you need in one great package. So whether you are in the office, at home or on the go you will always have access.

Use a client such as Outlook or Apple Mail to download your email from our servers and manage on one device such as your PC, smartphone or iPad. Once downloaded from our server, your emails are stored locally on your device. IMAP gives you full email access on the go and peace of mind that your emails will not be lost if any of your devices are lost, stolen or inoperable. A personalised address using your company’s domain name allows you to communicate with your customers using a professional and relevant email address.

Our Advanced Anti Virus & Spam Protection enables you to protect your computer from malicious viruses and protect your inbox from junk mail. Our scanning service is only a first line of defence. You should still run anti-malware (including virus) scanner on your computer because there are ways of getting infected other than via email.

Web-based interface and management system based on the popular amavisd-new e-mail scanner and SpamAssassin. Written in Perl and PHP, giving end-users control over how their mail is processed by virus scanners and spam filters, while giving mail administrators the power to configure site-wide defaults and limits.

POP
Post Office Protocol is a standard protocol for receiving email. POP is a client/server protocol in which email is received and held for you by our Mail server. Periodically, you (or your client email receiver e.g. Outlook) check your mail-box on the server and download any email using POP3.

IMAP
The Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) is a service that allows email messages stored on a remote server to be managed in much the same way as if they were stored on the user’s local machine. Unlike POP3, which only allows access to a single inbox, IMAP allows the creation of additional folders, between which messages can be distributed for archiving. The folders will be synced across all your devices. Advanced features include the ability to search and sort messages within a folder and the ability to flag messages as “sent”, “replied-to” etc.

WEB EXCHANGE
Allows you to access your emails securely from any location, all you need is an Internet connection and web browser and you can log into your Exchange Mail account to read, send, receive and manage your emails.
