E-Mail Soln. (Yearly Only): Free Google mail (10x 7GB mail) (Domain required*)


Domain as in a www.mywebsite.com or can i use my .astahost.com site?
Also whats the deadline for astahosts service? Cuz if its a couple of weeks away i think i can get an extra 10$ and get that .com before i switch.

Also whats so special about it? and do you think getting a username@mydomain.com is better? the @mydomain looks more professional i dunno. Is mydomain here just mysite, or mysite.astahost

Domain as in www.mywebsite.com, i.e. a top-level domain name (com, net, org etc.), so you won't be able to use Google Mail's service if you use a subdomain. But don't worry - the "offer" isn't limited. It is how things will work from now on, so you can take your time accumulating myCENTs.

Were you refering to the google mail's service or did you mean the credit system won't be suspended and i can continue like before? If not, which i think is the case, when is the deadline for transfer? iam a bit slow in understanding stuff tongue.gif

I was talking about the new Credits System, but I misunderstood your question - I was saying that Astahost will continue providing hosting services based on myCENTs indefinitely, but the same doesn't go for the old Credits System. I am not sure for how long it will operate, but you safest bet would be to transfer.

Maybe you already understood from pyost answer, else here is how I would explain the way the myname@mydomain is related to mydomain.com which is related to mysubdomain.astahost.com

If you have your own domain (www.something.com for instance) you master the DNS entries for this domain. Of course everything is easier if Xisto is your provider because he makes everything automatically compatible with astahost, but in pure theory you own the DNS entries of your domain and you put what is needed.
If this domain is parked on your astahost subdomain (something.astahost.com for instance), when you connect to your astahost cpanel you master how the mails to this domain are redirected to the DNS of your mail provider.
And if your domain mail is hosted by google (basic free way or enterprise expensive way), the DNS of your mail provider are these provided by google in your google apps domain mail management settings tags and you enter them in your astahost cpanel mail configuration tag.
I don't know if what I explained here is clear enough. If I am wrong, maybe Opaque or BuffaloHelp could explain it more precisely if they happen read this post.
Regards
Yordan
