Private Email by Namecheap
I'm currently I using the two month trial. Web interface is somewhat clunky and none to impressive, but IMAP seems to work ok. Has anyone else here tried it?

i tried it too. or it is better to say that i attempted to try it. the problem with it was they required you to change mx records etc and that was not an option with me. spam experts requires a specific setup and would not work if i had changed mx records.

This is odd because being as my domain was purchased through namecheap, I wasn't required to make any changes manually. I simply selected that my mail be hosted by then and it was done.

I've got a paid account with them but I don't use it all the time. It works OK. They had some major instability problems about a year ago but I think they got them all resolved. Regarding the webmail, I like it and think it works pretty well.

I host the email for one of my domains there. The service seems alright and it was easy to set up. I'm not too thrilled about the OX web interface, though--just another generic webmail interface.

I've been pretty satisfied with it, so I went ahead and bought in before my trial was over. They still credited me two extra months. I contacted online live support once and the experience was very positive.

I have been contemplating using Namecheap (for email hosting) but have not yet taken the plunge. Most certainly I would want email addresses @myowndomain - most certainly not @namecheap.com - I fail to see any advantages in that.

But enterprise's private domains are hosted on their private DNS servers most likely. For email systems, the solid DNS solution is very important. |

Namecheap Private Email is not a free service, but is very reasonably priced. It is designed for people to use with their own domain that is hosted by Namecheap.

I have been using their private type for a trial.
what I am not satisfied is that this type doesn't support active sync, only business and business office types support that. |
