Email Hosting
« on: September 24, 2020, 02:38:26 PM »

Looking to dip my toe into a paid email hosting service.  Looking around and theemailshop.co.uk caught my eye as a reasonably priced UK-based company.

Does anyone have experience of this company?

Are there better UK-based email hosting options?

(My needs are small, say 5 email accounts, IMAP, POP3, SMTP, proper security, maybe a web page and I have my own domain.)

I use Names and they host my .co.uk email (I also have my own domain)

They have a reasonable webUI and support most email protocols, no complaints about their service tbh

Thanks, sounds good.  Looking through their packages and not sure what defines a 'user' if you can have unlimited addresses per user.  Unless that means unlimited addresses through to just a single inbox; if so then buying 5 'user' packages for 5 individuals would look expensive.

Having never moved my domain to a different email provider I presume it is easy enough thing to do?

I've been using John's email hosting for around two and half years now and it's been perfect  :thumbs:

Thanks John - I was hoping for a UK company so finding one that resides on this forum is a welcome surprise!

Is there a direct link to what it all looks like (apologies if I missed it when looking around)?

Probably of no surprise to many of you but John takes customer support to a whole new level.

Successfully up and running with my first ever email hosting service using my own domain name!

Brilliant.
