Email

One of the easiest, fastest and cheapest ways to communicate with people around the world is by using email.

For a small/medium sized company, having a network Internet email facility is a real benefit. It can make your company look bigger as well as all the other advantages of email.

However, the main reasons that small and medium sized companies don’t have email is because the cost is prohibitive and setting up a network email system can seem very confusing. Our solutions aim to eliminate or reduce the reasons not to have an email facility.

To use our solutions you often do not need an expensive ‘business’ Internet account, many ‘personal’ accounts will work just as well, for a fraction of the cost.

The mail system runs on a single machine which can connect to your Internet Provider to retrieve and send email to and from the Internet. It then determines who each message it gets from the Internet is intended for and places it into their personal ‘mailbox’ from which they can retrieve it when they want.

All the other machines on your network connect to the machine running the mail server, so they don’t need access to the Internet themselves. Each person uses a standard Internet email reader to get their own email over the network from the mail server machine. They do not have access to other people’s email, so privacy is ensured.

Each person can send email from their own machine as well, this mail is sent to the machine running the mail server which stores it locally until the next time that it connects to the Internet, when it sends it to your Internet Provider for distribution over the Internet.
