Q:
Can I use you guys for SMTP?
Generally the answer is no. We are NOT an ISP therefore we do not offer SMTP services. We recommend that you use your ISP (the company you get your internet dial up access from) for SMTP. They will provide a much faster connection since you are already connected to their backbone.
For enhanced security we close all SMTP relay channels on our mail servers. This pervents spammers from illegally using our bandwidth to flood the internet with junk mail. This is for your protection, and allows us to offer speedy reliable mail services.
If you absolutely need us to supply SMTP services we can (see Host Options to Order), however a static IP address is required to open a dedicated relay channel.
