Yes, i'm sorry.  When I move to the FreeBSD platform, i'll need to re-add the info.

And pretty much anyone who asks for one should get one shortly, that's why I asked you to use a specific subject, so that it's nicely filtered into a separate folder for me.

Also, you will get a response by email once your account is setup also with details with server names, etc...

Changes/Improvements:
- Moving to a the FreeBSD platform, which should prove to be more stable.

- Outgoing mailserver.  I will be adding support for outgoing mail as well, so you will not have to use your ISP's mail server, you can use the msgplus one.

- Webmail.  Horde IMP will be installed so that you can check your email remotely, without POP3.

Hopefully, the improvements will outweigh the short downtime, while this is setup.  It should all be ready by tommorow evening.

Thank you,
SonicBoom

its down now and SonicBoom is working on it atm. well mabey not this second be he is working on it today and he said it should be back up later this afternood.. i think if not oh well... at least were getting it

ya. i can't wait. i've always wanted a POP3mail... and i'll get rid of the huge ammounts of spam that i get!

and i'll finally get to use a POP3 spam filter. i've always wanted one of those!

Ahh yes, and I forgot to mention, you get optional SPAM filtering.  I'll have a webpage where you can enable/disable spam filtering, and "check the spam queue" to see what messages were caught by the filter.

I'll also have an address where you can forward spam that does get past the filter, so the filters can be modified to suit.

Btw, the new mail server should be up and ready by 9pm EST tonight.

Thanks,
SonicBoom

Alright, in an attempt to try something a bit more stable, i'm trying FreeBSD as the OS along with PostFix for mail.  I will also be adding support for SMTP Authentication so you can use the same server for sending mail.

Unfortunately, it's going to be difficult transferring users over, so could everyone please email me the username and password they were using so I can create it on the new mail server?  Also, if you were still unable to get an account, please email at this time also.  I might as well add some more while i'm busy adding accounts.  Send the requests with the following subject please so I can easily pick them out:

MsgPlus Email Request

Please direct the email requests to rbewley@friend.ly.net

The new server will be setup tommorow afternoon.  I apoligize for the inconvenience, but I think it will provide a more stable mail environment for everybody and also gives those who missed out the first time, another chance for an @msgplus.net email account.

Thank you,
SonicBoom
