Email Moving

I’ve decided to move my email hosting to Google Apps, my address won’t be changing but over the next couple of days DNS changes will be rolling out over the internet so if your mail is important, please make sure you cc my personal Gmail account: whitemx@gmail.com.

Update: Well the whole move seems to be going very smoothly. DNS changes are now filtering out, the US seems to have updated already. Either way my mail configuration is such that you can go back to using my proper address with no worries of delivery failures now.

I have to say that the Google Apps product is very impressive, what they are offering for $50 per annum would be difficult to match on any other hosting arrangement. Definitely worth a look.

  1. So will you be reading your mail on-line the whole time or can you use IMAP/POP? I’m just interested that you don’t use Domino even if that’s a bit overkill for companies like ours?I still haven’t checked out the Google Apps in any great detail. Rob.

  2. I’ve actually been using the private version of Gmail for over a year now. I used to run my own Domino server for mail but maintaining it, especially for a non-admin such as myself was taking way too much time. I do still run a server but it is purely for apps these days.I use the Gmail browser interface in partnership with the Mobile client on my mobile phone given that I am never really offline!If your email demands aren’t serious then I’d definitely recommend having a look.Matt
