Spamhaus - Iconcube

[gwp]

<<< The reason for me wanting to move is that my current host seems to have let all and sundry onto their server, thus now my shared server is being blocked by spamhaus.
My web site hosting is based around a membership system that uses iconcube/htaccess/mod_rewrite

I like the way you peeps run your web hosting here and the support, but i have a few questions that i cant seem to find the answer to.

1. Do you have iconcude installed ?
2. How many sites are on each server
3. Do you know of any possible problem i would have with emials being blocked bu AOL/Hotmail etc
4. Do you have a sending limit for emails ( i send 4 newsletters a year to my 8,000 members)
5. Can i pay with Paypal?

Thanks

Here are the answers for your queries.
1.Ioncube is the correct term. Yes, we have them on all our shared servers.

2. We do not host more than 500 website hostings on our shared servers

3.AOL and others of its ilk block emails when they are unsolicted, have objectionable content or because of too many emails being sent from the same host without reasons. If your email has any one of these above condiitions applicable to it, not only would they be blocked, but also the subnet on which the website hosting is hosted stands the risk of being blacklisted.

4.On our shared servers, customers are restricted to 250 out going emails per hour. ON a VPS Hosting, its 500 mails per hour.

5. We do accept paypal payments.

Hello Nick
Thanks for the very quick reply.
Am i able to buy some space, upload my website hosting to it, work on correcting all possible errors, then change the DNS to the new server?

1. oops , thanks for that.
2. Ok
3. I dont consider 4 emails a year to be spam, and i do have a lot of members with an AOL addy. I think the blacklist is what has happened to my current host.
4. Will look at the options/cost of VPS Hosting also then.
5. Good

You may buy a shared hosting account, upload your website hosting, iron out any chinks if they are there . . . You may change the DNS later on when you are satisfied. However, we do not offer trial accounts.
