Site Hosting and Email
Email:
Just because you have an internet connection from your ISP, doesn’t always mean you have an e-mail service, or one you can rely on. Web based email services such as HotMail™ and Yahoo™ might suit students, or individuals that do not need a proper email service, but they are not really suitable for business.
You may also find that certain ISP’s won’t allow you to use your domain name with their e-mail service, so you are stuck using an email address such as ‘myname@aol.com’ or ‘mybusiness@btinternet.com’ as your email address.
Hosting:
With a 99% guaranteed uptime, our first class hosting solutions provide an excellent environment for your web site. With a range of standard hosting packages, bolt-on extras including e-commerce and server backups, and a resilient server system and infrastructure, your internet presence is in safe hands.

With a 2fourseven email service you can chose any ISP for your internet access (what about our 2fourseven Broadband service.?) as you are not limited to your connectivity provider for your email.
ANTIVIRUS SCANNING – INCLUDED FREE
All messages are now scanned for viruses as they are received by our mail server. New virus definitions are checked for and updated automatically by us ensuring that no virus bearing email can make it into your mailboxes.
Our antivirus scanning service is set per domain, not per mail box, so every email account under a single domain is protected.
SPAM FILTERING
You’ll probably be familiar with menaces of unsolicited email, commonly referred to as spam. You’ll understand the annoyance caused by the avalanche of junk email which somehow finds its way uninvited into your inbox, destroying the efficiency of your email system, consuming expensive bandwidth and wasting your valuable time.
Our SPAM Filter is a unique service. It filters unwanted and harmful email messages out of your inbox before your even click ‘send and receive’ saving your time and money.
We can set your filter to do one of the following:
Reject
Return the message to the sender with an informative message detailing why their message was rejected.
Tag
Let the email through but add the word ‘SPAM’ to the message subject line, enabling you to filter all unwanted email into a specified folder using rules in your own email program.
Quarantine
Send it to a separate email box or address you specify in which you can then view and verify suspect messages or archive them should they be required in the future.
Once you have our Spam Filter in place, we can also add email addresses to your own ‘block list’ even if they are not considered by our system as spam, but are simply annoyances to your or your business.
Alternatively, you can also add senders whose email address is considered to be spam by our system, but are trusted by you, to your own ‘allowed list’.
The 2fourseven Spam Filter service is just £75 + vat per domain per year. Remember that’s per domain, not per email address! Every email address under a single domain will be covered i.e. sales@mydomain.com, fred@mydomain.com, techincal@mydomain.com, accounts@mydomain.com… and so on.
