Email Conversation with CommmuniTech - Looks like a dedicated server route.

Hello Wesley:

There appears to be some mis-communication here. No, we absolutely do not support Gossamar Threads Links script. This is clearly stated in our Acceptable Usage Policy:

www.communitech.net/about/policy.cgi

"..Due to the consumption of system resources and overloading of the e-mail server, CommuniTech.Net forbids the use of the Gossamer Links program by any client.
."

We also do not support mod_perl on our Virtual Webhosting Package. If you wish to use either of these, you may do so on your own dedicated server. Dedicated server information can be found at:

http://www.communitech.net/hosting/dedicated/

If you have any more questions, please feel free to let us know.


Best Regards,

Nicholas Gaugler

Probably something to do with Matt Wright's scripts offered there.


Gregorio: I will not be using Communitech's services. Currently looking at other hosting companies.

Thanks for the great suggestions everybody.
