Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's) Why are Business Accounts charged more than Personal Accounts? 123m.com provides good service. We cater to small businesses and spent a lot of time keeping our small business customers happy. This extra time and attention requires a slightly higher fee. What is POP3 email? POP3 stands for Post Office Protocol. The 3 stands for the current version of the protocol. POP3 is the most recent version of a standard protocol for receiving e-mail. POP3 is a client/server protocol in which e-mail is received and held for you by your Internet server. Periodically, you (or your client e-mail receiver) check your mail-box on the server and download any mail. POP3
mail can be retrieved by most popular e-mail products, such as
Outlook, Outlook Express, Communicator, Eudora and many more. If 123m.com handles our company's email, will others know or see that 123m.com is providing this service? No. When 123m.com handles your email accounts, it looks as though the email server is located in your own back room. Does the 123m.com email system work with PDA's? Yes! Using the standard POP3/SMTP protocols, the 123m.com system works well with PDA's. Back to Top Okay, I am going to Sign-up! But what is a DNS Record or MX Record? A DNS Record is how the internet finds your web-site or email server. All domain names have two parts, a WWW record (website) and an MX Record (email). These can be split up. If you have another company hosting your web-site, they are managing you DNS Record. To use 123m.com for email services, you would have your hosting company point your MX Record to pop3.123m.com. If you are not actively using your domain name right now, this typically means that your Registrar, the company you listed your domain with, is hosting your DNS Record. In that case, you need to contact your registrar and have them point your DNS Record as follows: Primary
Name Server (NS): ns.123ebiz.com - 63.106.146.210 At this point, 123m.com is hosting your DNS Record. Some ask, Why pay for email when many offer the service for free? 123m.com's answer is simple. There are no free lunches. If a mail service is giving away their mailboxes, they are making money some other way. Most likely, they are doing this via advertising! They advertise within your email, or they resell private information they collect from you as you use their service. 123m.com is a private email provider. You pay us a small fee each year which allows us to keep our facilities state-of-the-art, providing you with exceptional service. After that, we mind our own business. 123m.com does not allow spammers to use our service, nor will we ever resell your email address or private information to any third party. Will I still get junk email with my 123m.com account? Junk email is a fact of life. The more you submit your email to various websites, the more likely it is that you will receive junk email. 123m.com offers free alias accounts that can help you manage this. Although your regular email address might be sample@123m.com, 123m.com can create an alias to this account, such as sample2@123m.com, that you can use to submit to websites. Both emails end up in the same mailbox, but the alias makes it much easier for you to recognize and delete junk mail. |
