Web Hosting Details
|
Disk Storage
Disk storage refers to the amount of server hard disk space your account is allocated. This space is used to store your html files, graphics, audio/video files and all other files that make up your web site. Your POP3 E-mails are not stored in this space. When you create E-mail accounts you can allocate up to 20 MB (10 MB for Basic Accounts) of additional storage for each account.
POP3 E-mail Accounts
Each of our hosting packages comes with unlimited POP3 E-mail accounts in addition to E-mail forwards and aliases. You have the option to retrieve E-mail directly from POP3 mailboxes on the mail server using an E-mail program such as Eudora, Pegasus, Outlook, or Outlook Express.
E-mail Aliases / Forwards
Using E-mail Aliases or forwarders gives you the ability to receive any E-mail at *@yourdomain.com. Specific E-mail addresses that you want to forward out of your domain to another E-mail account can be accomplished through MonsterControls or by editing your .redirect file within your /home directory. For example you may want to forward all E-mail addressed to design@yourdomain.com to an AOL account such as Bob232@aol.com or another POP3 account on your domain bob@yourdomain.com. The best part about using aliases or forwards is that the person E-mailing you never knows the mail is being redirected.
E-mail Autoresponders
An autoresponder is a pre-determined message with information you want automatically sent to anyone who E-mails a designated E-mail address/mailbox at your domain.
Password Protected Pages

Directory setup with special permissions to auto-execute user-defined scripts. CGI is used to accomplish tasks which are not supported by basic HTML such as a hit counter or guest book. You may use this directory to execute any cgi-script you write or ones that are already pre-written for you. The directory is specially designed for scripts that end in *.pl as scripts that end in .cgi will execute from any directory within your web space.

MySQL Databases
A database is a structured collection of data. It may be anything from a simple shopping list to a picture gallery or the vast amounts of information in a corporate network. To add, access and process data stored in a computer database, you need a database management system such as mySQL. Since computers are very good at handling large amounts of data, database management plays a central role in computing, as stand-alone utilities or as parts of other applications.

There are many configurable features including automatic subscribe and unsubscribe and much more.
