We are very pleased to offer a great mail platform with many
available to all of our customers. The information on this page will give you
an overview of the features offered in this solution:
| Most mailboxes are allocated 25 MB worth of space. Custom
allocations can be made for an extra charge. Please contact
us if you have any questions. |
| POP, SMTP, IMAP and WebMail |
| We provide a full-featured web-based mail application that
you can use to check your email from any web browser, no matter where you are.
This tool also has spupport for mobile devices such as mobile phones and
PocketPC devices. |
| Our servers automatically block any mail from senders that
appear on the major RBL lists. Messages that are not blocked are "graded" based
on their liklihood to be spam. Any message marked with a score of greater than
5 will have "***SPAM***" added to the subject line. This is convienent as it
allows you to establish a rule in your mail client to automatically direct all
messages with subjects containing this text to a special folder thereby
reducing the clutter in your inbox. If you have messages that are marked as
spam that shouldn't be (i.e. they are from a newsletter that you have
subscribed to) you can add the addresses to your personal address book on the
webmail interface and those messages will be automatically "white-listed".
Also, any addresses you send to are automatically white-listed. |
| Our servers are updated with new virus definitions every
night ensuring that we have the best protection available to you. When a
message is sent to you that contains a virus, the message is quarantined and
cleaned before it ever gets to your inbox. Note: Even though this feature is
present, AWS strongly recommends that all of its customers install anti-virus
software on their computers and keep their virus definitions up to date. |
| The webmail interface provides 4 or 5 different "skins"
from which you can choose to change the look-and-feel for your usage. |
| If you would prefer to send all of the mail you receive to
a different account, you have full control over this functionality directly
from your browser. You can configure your email (i.e. tom@argowebservices.com)
to forward to another account (i.e. tom@microsoft.com). You also have the
choice to simply forward all mail or to also keep a local copy of the mail. |
| For those times when you are away, you can configure the
auto-responder on your account to automatically reply to messages sent to you
with a message letting the sender know that you are away and will reply to
email when you return (or whatever you'd like to say). Also, you could create a
mailbox called salesinfo (i.e. salesinfo@argowebservices.com) that
automatically replies with sales-related information for your company. What's
best, is you have full control over this functionality at any time! |
| The webmail interface supports a user-based calendar that
allows you to schedule meetings and reply to meeting requests sent to you. This
calendar has full support for ICS files and is compatible with the calendar in
Microsoft Office Outlook and Microsoft Exchange Server. This means that
"accepting" a meeting request, even sent by someone outside of your
organization will cause that meeting to automatically be added to your
calendar. |
| Each user has their own personal address book available to
them where they can store their personal contacts for ease of sending when
using the webmail interface. |
| This feature is particurlarly useful for those customers
that have a large number of email accounts. What this means, is that all of the
users in your organization are automatically added to a "public" address list
that is available to all users within your organization. As an admin, you have
the option of selectively hiding certain addresses from this list if you like. |
| Every user has access to our web-based control panel
allowing them to change certain features of their mail account. Additionally,
we can establish "admins" for your organization that will have full control
over the mailboxes in your domain. This gives you the flexibility to maintain
mailboxes, reset passwords, maintain aliases, and much more. |
