-
An auto-responder is an automated e-mail response that our server can be set
up to send to the address of someone e-mailing the auto-responder address. For
example, we could set up info@your-actual-domain.com as an auto-responder. Then
whenever someone requested information, the text file that you create and specify
will be e-mailed to the sender of the e-mail. This could be something as simple
as, "thank you for your e-mail we will get back to you in the next 24 hours."
Or you could send a 100 page informational packet.

of Service.
- How often do your backup services run?
-
Accounts are backed up daily, weekly and monthly. While we have not had a problem
with any of our backup systems in the past, it is worth noting that no guarantees
are made of any kind, either expressed or implied, as to the integrity of these
backups. Backups are made for server restoration purposes only. It is the client's
responsibility to maintain local copies of their web content any information.
The "Backup Manager" is included in each hosting plan and client can
use this tool to back up their files. If loss of data occurs due to an error
on our behalf, we will attempt to recover the date for no charge to the client.
If data loss occurs due to negligence of client in securing their account or
by an action of the client, we will attempt to recover the data from the most
recent archive for a small administration fee.

- Can I run CGI scripts?
-
Yes you may run CGI scripts in your CGI bin. Please note, however,

look first to finding a PHP solution if one exists.
- What is the Spamassassin "Allow/Deny Addresses List"?
-
By entering the email addresses of friends and family members in the Allow List, you ensure that those addresses are never identified as spam.
On the other hand, entering undesirable addresses in the Deny List ensures that, regardless of scoring, these blacklisted addresses will always be identified as spam.
In fact, entire domains can be blocked if you desire. EX. Block all email from France, simply enter *@*.fr EX. Allow all email from frind@friends_email.com
