Host your e-mail properly and you'll resolve half your issues - either use Google, or Microsoft (I love O365). Then just your hosting provider or registrar as a DNS provider and let the real boys do the proper work.

I used to use Amazon WorkMail (cheap as chips) but it was just a little bit flaky and none of the issues I had were ever resolved.
Moved over to O365 (E3 subscription is free for 5 licenses if you have a MS Partner Action Pack) and am much happier. The basic package, if you don't want all the O365 gumpf is only about £3 a month.Comment

Can't recall the details but moved my small business website a few years ago and it was very easy. Following is Hostpapa guide but prob. much the same for any host.
How to make your transfer to HostPapa as seamless as possible
Throughout the years email has been the biggest source of problems, best to have code for plain php, host, gmail etc and switch whenever you need to.Last edited by xoggoth; 8 May 2017, 20:39.bloggoth

The email offering from them is nothing fancy, just basic IMAP, but really what more do you want? People talk about Office 365 Integration but how many people actually use it.
As for the website transfer, Vidahost will help out with that, if they can't I am sure there are some people around who can help you with website scrapingOriginally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyI can't see any way to do it can you please advise?

To be honest, I think office 365 is the way to go.
I've had so many issues with domainmonsters email servers. Like I said it was down for most of the day yesterday and this is not a rare occurence. Not so long ago they completely screwed up and all incoming email got bounced for a day or two. That was not cool.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

Originally posted by vwdan View PostProper calendar and contacts sync, full Outlook support/functionality (e.g., server side rules), included copies of Office (with the right package), 1TB of OneDrive storage etc. I use the hell out of my O365 features, absolutely love having that degree of functionality without ever having to think about it.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment
