Using the Announcer feature, how many email addresses can you send email to? January 30, 2008
Posted by Guy Cook in : Features , add a commentHow many email addresses can you send email to?
When sending mail, there is a limit to how many recipients you can send an email to at one time. This limit is 4,096 bytes, or four kilobytes. Please note that this is not a limit on the size of the actual email itself; this is a limit on the size of the portion of the email which holds the recipient’s email addresses (e.g. the “To”, “CC” and “BCC” fields).
Here’s how it works: each character in an email address, excluding commas, semicolons and spaces (which are used to separate multiple email addresses in the same field, depending on the email client you are using), uses up one byte. Therefore, if your email addresses are twenty-two characters long on average, then one email can be sent to as many as 186 recipients.
In the event that the email addresses exceed the four kilobyte limit, that portion of the email is truncated (shortened), so that it will no longer be over the limit. This means that some of the people on the recipient list will not get the email you sent.
As a general rule-of-thumb, you will be more than reasonably safe if you never send an individual email to more than 100 recipients at any one time.

Doubled limits again, but not our price. April 10, 2007
Posted by Guy Cook in : Features, Hosting, News , add a commentWe have doubled disk space and bandwidth limits again and have added additional email boxes to most plans. Since our hosting is served by clusters and everything is redundant for enhanced reliability, it is more expensive to add disk space than other hosting providers.
In 2007, you will see some significant enhancements to the email hosting platform. These changes will result in many exciting new services including higher storage capacity mailboxes and other high-demand, email-based services.
As a part of this enhancement process, a series of maintenance windows have been scheduled every Saturday, starting April 14th, and ending Saturday, July 7th, inclusive. Each maintenance window will run from 12am-4am ET (9pm-1am PT, 4am-8am GMT).
While no disruption in mail services are expected, any unanticipated interruption will be brief.

Posted by Guy Cook in : Features, Hosting , add a commentEmail Virus Scanning There is hardly an email user in the world that hasn’t experienced the unfortunate consequences of a virus, worm or Trojan Horse. According to a recent survey conducted by ICSA Labs, “More than three-quarters of the respondents surveyed feel that the overall virus problem is somewhat worse or much worse than last year.” 
For this reason, we have partnered with Symantec to offer email virus scanning technology for email accounts.
