CC email address?

[Geonovast]

I remember seeing at some point, don't remember where, mention of a possibility of having email accounts here. i.e. Geonovast@comancheclub.com

 

My current email provider, who had, IMHO, the best interface and spam filter, has recently changed to the worst spam filtering possible, and such a bubbled up interface that emails show in literally a 780 wide and 90 pixel high box. It's unusable.

 

Obviously I need to switch, but I think it would just be the coolest thing ever to have an @comancheclub.com email.

We have them, but you get so many per the package price Pete pays for the hosting... More emails=More cost.

Do you know how much? I could justify paying a reasonable amount for an address.

let's hold off a bit til we can figure out what to do about the forums software.

Any thoughts on this yet?

you could host your own home web email server... use ubuntu server (free) and google how to set up the email part (free most of the time) then make a free domain via no-ip.com (free).. if you want to run it on a Virtual machine use Virtualbox (its free)

 

for example I am running my server on a virtual machine on my desktop at home that stays on most/all of the time.. i have a domain name through no-ip.com so i don't need to use my house ip address (that changes too much). My current web page is http://blue88comanche.no-ip.org all it currently does it redirect to my build thread on Comanche Club.

 

eventually i am going to get around to figuring out the whole email thing.

Google provides free Gmail for domains. So I have @nonamestudios.com provided by Google. Just takes some DNS changes at the domain registrar to set it up. Then you can set up tons of accounts.
