OWH,

By the way, I have to make a comment. We moved to OneWorldHosting back in May from another vendor. I have never been sorry for that decision. OWH has simply been the most reliable and responsive host I've ever seen. Response to my technical questions has always been exceptionally good. Thanks for the follow up.

E-mail Set-up Webmail Overview

 


Webmail is a web based system that performs the functions of a mail client. While not a substitute for a pc-based mail application like Outlook or Thunderbird, you can send, receive, and view all the mail from your One World Hosting account from anywhere in the world via a web browser.  Open Webmail is one of the most capable webmail programs available anywhere, at any price (just another free feature of your web hosting account!).  In addition to normal send and receive functionality, Open Webmail offers: 

  • Spellcheck
  • Search and Advanced Searching capabilities can be carried out on numerous fields and criteria
  • Complete calendar with mail integration - send messages to specified e-mail addresses as a reminder of an event!
  • Ability to import existing address books
  • Customize the look and feel: background changes, theme changes, calendar options and message filtering options.
  • Enhanced security measures

Open Webmail Recommendations:
Like any webmail program, Open Webmail is best utilized as a backup or vacation email tool, rather than a front line interface for all email.
We recommend that you keep any email box used for Webmail under 50MB total size for optimum performance. One World Hosting reserves the right to empty webmail trash folders periodically to enhance performance.

Open Webmail First Use:
The first time you log into Open Webmail you will get a couple of screens worth of questions/options for different settings.
We recommend that you scroll to the bottom of the screen and make the this change:

"Trash mail reserved day(s)" change to "Delete at Logout"

That way junk email is removed promptly and does not take up useful space. Complete the setting by hitting "Save" at the bottom of the page.

Open Webmail Help: 
Open Webmail comes with an extensive support section built-in, just click the
Help? link at the bottom of any page for an extensive collection of help pages, tutorials, and more information. The Help pages are also available at this web site for reference: http://openwebmail.org/openwebmail/help/en/index.html
