Baron Marshall Posted on 7/1/2004 9:11:53 PM	Hi Rupert Cool tutorial, excpt one thing, I set up my mail exacly this way, eveyting was working except when I wanted to send mail, I figured out that I had to tick the "My server requires authentication" in the Outgoing Mail Server. Prehaps you could add this to you tutorial. Regards Baron

WA acquires Frogfoot consumers MailFire: Email Marketing Launched! Hosting Overage Traffic Price Reduction

As a marketer, I don't 'do' the testimonial thing often, as sometimes they are taken too lightly, but carry enormous impact. As a strategist (just starting my own company), it was daunting, to say the least, at having to address issues such as domain registration and hosting... Web Africa... you make the jobs of guys like me, seem like a walk in the park. Internet is supposed to be one of the most impersonal mediums (due to the 'instant gratification' syndrome), but once again, you've shifted the paradigm. The service is excellent and rest assured, I will be moving all my client hosting to you (as soon as I figure out how... lol). Thanks
