Hosted Exchange Account

g0nk · April 13th, 2006, 2:15 PM

Greetings! I am a longtime Surpass user, and I just had a quick question..

Does Surpass offer Hosted Exchange 2003 accounts? I would like to have it all bundled with my web hosting account, if possible, instead of forwarding my MX record to another service provider for hosted Exchange access..

Just curious if you guys offer this, and if not, if it's planned in the future. Thanks!

Someone asked about this yesterday as well, it seems this is getting to be a popular request that we are going to look into further.. but at this time, we do not offer it.

i look forward to a result of you looking into this, would be good if we were able run it along side our current plans or something, thanks kayla

Something to think about Kayla (for the future) is also to offer BES service for Blackberrys (and other phones now) along with the Exchange hosting. For those not into "crackberries", BES offers wireless syncing with the exchange mailbox in adddition to high speed data for third party applications (like ssh, rss readers, and IM programs).

I have BES/Exchange hosting with a provider now and love having my web servers email deliveried instantly to my blackberry.

Would be nice to have web & mail all in one house though

I was told the other day that certain windows enabled smartphones will work brilliantly with exchange servers and even support push technology without having to play around.

that's true.. this is the reason i was asking, so i could use ActiveSync to have push mail on my Cingular 8125 WindowsMobile2005 PocketPC phone..

thats an interesting bit of kit im going from Orange spv m500 to the Orange spv m600 which supports push email with exchange servers.

Nice phone

- I almost went with it but wound up going with the 8700 blackberry. Amazing - logged into cpanel with it today to make a quick mail filter change and tonight I'll have public key SSH running on it. We'll be a one man computer band with our toys yet

Just wanted to add my vote as someone who would be interested in signing up for Exchange server access if Surpass were to offer it.
