The Best Email Hosting Solution

[ukgangster]

I'm using Slashmail again as my primary email hosting account and so far, its been rock solid reliable. Ok, so it doesn't have half the features of the likes of Fastmail, EuMX or Tuffmail, but somehow that's the beauty of the service - as the tagline goes "Smart, simple, secure". Support is great and any issues I've had are resolved quickly. http://slashmail.org/moreinfo/

Have you taken a look at Polaris Mail? I'm using 1 domain with them as well as using it as a back up to my other domains, and again, its a very reliable service. http://www.polarismail.com/

Any Luxsci users who can advise and let me know theie views and experiences
3} Google Apps Premier,I believe it does not have any adds in the interface and comes with 25GB storage for $50 a year.
I had tried the ordinary Google Apps but found the Adds too disturbing
Dear users what are your comments?
4} Runbox I am also considering at $49.95 per year i am testing a trial version ,how is it for email hosting compared to Fastmail,Luxsci and Google Apps
Awaiting your views and recomendations

I used to be a Runbox fan/user but the fiasco with their inability for a secure IMAP solution I left. I then went with a couple other providers and after a good 2 years checked out Runbox again, they still had major issues with being able to deliver secure IMAP

Anyway I've been with LuxSci for going on two years, yes they are pricey. But they simply are the best email provider I've ever come across. I also use their premium anti virus/spam and it's incredible. Their support is next to none with the speed of response, resolution and service.

Seriously if you want simply the best email provider there is you cannot beat LuxSci. To me this is worth the cost of a burrito and taco at Taco Bell per Month.

I did not know slashmail and I have just signed up for a trial period...it seems veeeery nice. Hyper fast and simple.

In case I will sign up for a plan, I will ask you your referral code, so that you can get 2 months free!

I like them, too, but I wish they would add another webmail interface option, like Squirrelmail or something.

I share the same opinion about their version of @mail. They do offer Horde which I am very pleased with. You would need to ask them (George) for the set-up info.
