Hi,

No, Gossamer Mail will work on hosted accounts. Be sure to send the system requirements to your ISP though. We do offer virtual hosting as well, see http://www.gossamerhost.com if you are interested.

Cheers,

Alex

This mean that also if my account allow only 100 pop3 I can run GM also with the self account creation by the user?
Yes I looked at your hosting services but unfortunately they are too expensive for my pockets... Frown

Hi,

Ask your ISP if they allow "catch all" accounts. i.e. anything@yourdomain.com goes to a single pop account. If so, then Gossamer Mail can run with the self account creation (and you can have more then 100 accounts).

Cheers,

Alex

As Alex mentioned you need to ask your host if they allow catchall accounts eg....

Code:

foo@yourdomain.com------------------>

bar@yourdomain.com------------------> catchall@yourdomain.com

test@yourdomain.com----------------->

anything@yourdomain.com ------------>

Ah...
I am configuring a Mac OS X Server (Unix based) so that I can port my site, that now is hosted, in the next months to this dedicated server.
So did you know how to setup this 'catch all' address?
Thank you very much

It has a built in Mail Server... I can choose between SendMail and SMTP for the sending of mails...
My server is equipped with

Dual 1GHZ G4 processors with Velocity Engine (1 GigaFlop of power each)
512MB of RAM
80 GB Ultra Ata disc
2x256K L2 & 2x2MB L3 (Cache)
Ethernet Gigabit

and it will run on a HDSL line.
