server and will help you to sort out any problems. This only occurs if you

Catch All Email Address
If someone sends an email to a mailbox on your mail server that does not
exist you can catch it in a "catch all" email mailbox instead of returning
it to the sender . This is great for catching those email messages where the sender has typed the email quickly
and the address contains a typo which means it would normally "bounce". This will help protect against missing all those important emails that might otherwise go astray.

There is not waiting for our tech support staff to do this for you. We even set it up so mail.yourdomain.com points directly to the web mail administrator interface so your clients see you but not

Server Side IncludesServer side includes allow you to reuse the same HTML file, text file or ASP code again and again in many different web pages. Write it once use it may times. For instance the typical way to use SSI is to set up a header and footer and then include the header file in the top of every web page in your web site and the same for the footer at the bottom of the page. Update the one file and your whole web site is updated. There are many more uses for SSI but the most powerful is reusing the same code across all your pages.
