    Question Email site...?

    I am in the process of creating a site, that I may want to incorporate a small email service, both smtp and pop3 as well as a web based service.

    How would I create this, or provide this service?

    Could anyone provide any insight, what do I need to know in the way of programming skills?

    I am starting to learn php, and know quite a bit of HTML and some VB.

    are you hosting it? Have you got a domain name for this e-mail service? How many accounts are you looking for?

    If you have the hosting and email accounts set up and everyhting I have some PHP scripts that will do the webail bit. (Eg just connect to a pop3 server or whatever), and dispaly it like hotmial or yahoo etc.

    If your host uses cpanelx you can use cpanel mail to allow members to create there own email accounts

    I am not hosting it, I have paid a company ( www.hosting-unlimited.net ) to host my servers.

    They use cpanelX and is the most usful control panel that I have seen.

    They have really good service and nice prices, I have known the server go down for a period of 2 days and that was planned.

    I think the contents of one server was being moved to the other.

    Cant remeber when it was now though.

    ahh, so the server did not go down, you had to update your DNS to the new server
