Ive been looking at the possibility of different ways of utilising the push mail facility.
The main objective is to make it a s cheap as possible, with the stipulation that I need to be able to download my mail to my outlook desktop client. Webmail pop3 is fine for me and I don’t need the email left on the server although this woul be a nice to have.
I am currently using easily to host my email account and domain - I have 2 email accounts under the one domain - this would work only if easily did forarding of my email - but they don’t!
I have looket at using 4smartphone and there service to include the ability to download to my desktop outlook would cost $6.99 a month approx 4 pound a month 48 pound a year
They also provide outlook web access as well as calendar etc….
The next option is to use a sign up with another email hosting company xcalibre that do email hosting pop3 and email forwarding for 19.99 a year, this would allow me to have upto 10 email accounts. They have a 1000mb bandwith and 20mb storage per email account
It appears to me that using someone like xcalibre would be the cheapest option, if there forwarding facility is pretty much instantaneus
Has anyone got any ideas or considerations I should think of before I make my decisions.
Thanks in advance
