Hello,

interested in having a @msgplus.net email? It's now possible! Just send a PM to SonicBoom on this forum with the name and password you want to use. Note that there is a limited quantity of email address available so you'd better hurry if you want one. I'll close this thread when no more request can be accepted.

Patchou

I'll register

first post...XD

whoa i better hurry so i can get this one> scapeg0at@msgplus.net

I want it too!!! -----> ArtCrazy@msgplus.net

Allready sent SonicBoom a PM

If you would ask me (that's me, not you, and it's a opinion as well), it should be only for long-timers on this forum, 6 months and longer.

Why??

* billywoods1 wonders how many people used 'msgplus' for their password

woo hoo!!

pm sent - thanx for the offer patchou, that's really

just sent the private message, nice offer Patchou.

* theguy wonders if he'll get one.

Thanx for the e-mails , i PM'd Boom. Im gonna confuze my freinds by telling them i made it to be a admin on the plus forums ^_^ . And no i dont beleive long timers should be allowed to get e-mails only. I gots many reasons but the main reason is i havent been here all that long

i'd like admin@msgplus.net please ... just kidding

PM sended... i agree with giving regulars/forum crew/translators/bug testers/translation DB admins more priority

why? because i have been almost all of those once

so unfair. why should you guys get better. u should have to have at least 20 posts to get it though (50 is a higher priority) that is such a good idea!¡

well that suites me fine but i think everyone should get a e-mail regardless of how many eggs they lay , post they have , ext.

Well, we can worry about restricting it later.  I've gotten about 30 requests already.  To everyone who already sent me a PM, i'll setup your accounts some time this evening.  I'm just doing some final testing before I let them go live.

I'll contact you via PM with the server details.

Thanks.

ok than, everyone is sitting infront of there computers waiting to get a reply from SB

Yeah... it is POP3 isn't it?

Yes, it is POP3

squirrel mail?

Do you want squirrelmail installed?

i find it better than just pop3

your choice

PM sent!
I've requested name Choli and password ********
translators more priority -> ! and also more priority to the guy who made the tab installer & the translator .... j/k
squirrelmail? what's that?

web based email is the best quick description i can give

It's a webmail.  What about Horde Imp?

removed

Horde? I don't know much about webmails, but that word remembers me the webmail I use at the university. It works very bad

Anyway, if @msgplus.net has POP3, I'm happy.

Alright, the DNS entry seems to be correct now.  As soon as it updates, your email addresses should work.  I am working through the list as soon as I can, and have been sending PM's to the people who's accounts I have already activated.

SonicBoom, can you post how to use pop3 please. It would be quite helpful and will lessen the pm's. I know how, don't think I'm stupid now

cool, im gonna get one, even though i dont know what use it could be

Exactly wwat seph said..........  All my freinds sign-in with e-mails that are not hotmail or msn like yahoo or site mails and stuff. Is it possible for me to log-in using my e-mail. Im Confuzzled i never used POP3 before

it could be a good use if u register it as a passport in MSN

I have activated all accounts for any outstanding requests.  If you forgot to mention both a username and a password, I sent you a response

Please be sure to include what password you want.  Also, all usernames are added in lowercase, passwords however are put in as you request and are case sensitive.

Thanks,
SonicBoom

hehe , i got my passport so i can chat on messenger with my new e-mail ( took me a while to figure this stuff out)

Post instructions on using POP3 SonicBlue some of the people cant figure this out....

For those of you who don't know what you just signed up for , a POP3 account is one you can check through Outlook Express, or similar email client.  You just plugin the settings there, and you have email.

SonicBoom

was wondering it always opened outlook when i tried to check my mail... any way , that helps out. ummm i have my passport for it and i can be on messenger but when i click to verify my e-mail all i get is this " microsoft passport service is unavailbe to perform this service" thing and lots of my freinds have got it too

By the way, you can also get mail by sending to:

username@msgplus.net
username@blueshore.net
username@betarun.net

and soon...
username@skyblast.net
username@skyblast.com

Maybe if we are patient we may get the link but for the meantime... Where pretty much stuck

my outlook and express are borked so i cant work them! eeerg , is there another program i can use to check my mail for that e-mail

removed

Hey, give DNS a chance to update.  Shouldn't be too much longer...

Thanks,
SonicBoom

eeeerg.... My Outlook and Express or borked!

removed

* Chrono sent a PM

I used to have my chrono@msgplus...... the emails sent to that address were redirected to my hotmail account. Now it doesnt work

Hi,

DNS points domain names to servers and ip addresses.  In this instance, we are using an MX record to tell mail servers which mail server (mine) they need to send mail to for a specific domain.

When sombody sends a message to sombody@msgplus.net, the mail server looks for an MX record on msgplus.net, a server to which it should send mail.  This allows you to host the website on a seperate server from email.

Since patchou needed to change that record, it takes some time to update around the net.  If the net were contantly updating dns records, everything would slow to a crawl, so records only update every few hours to save the load on things.

Thanks,
SonicBoom

Stop saying thanks everytime

do not see realationship bw DNS and the fact we can not activate our acount with MSN messenger

Until DNS updates, the servers that send out the activation emails for MSN will not be able to find my server.

SonicBoom

thanx SonicBoom... when will next update be?

It has already updated for me, try sending your activation emails again...

SonicBoom

two questions Sonic Boom.... what activation e-mail and when did you register your @msgplus.net with passport

could you send me the contents of the activation e-mail

Why couldnt we just have an e-mail where we could check are e-mail and send our e-mail like hotmail so less confusion

Any one know of a program i can use to check my e-mail besides Outlook and Express

search www.softnews.ro you can find one there Messenger_Plus!

i took the same approach as daannyres.... still no go... lets wait a day. maybe it'll come..

***Who here has activated their account?****

hmmm

Jehuty.. explain your message

I don't wan't a msgplus email account, not that i don't like plus but because

I never had to verify my old e-mail cuz i signed up for hotmail.... i will beat up microsoft ^_^

I'll listen to koala and do exactly what she did ok ill tell yall if it works

it didnt work

Verification works for me and receiving emails but Sending emails doesn't >.<

@EvilSeph
you must enable SMTP authentication in your emailclient in order to use the mail server as an outgoing mail server

ahh..... now patchou needs to make a feature in plus to send and receive e-mails through this e-mail

Just to make sure I'm not doing it the wrong way (which I doubt), how would I go about doing that?

* EvilSeph thinks SonicBoom entered his details incorrectly ¬_¬ (jk) , though that may be the case

EvilSeph :: What username and password are you using to check mail?  Could you please let me know through PM so I can check it for you?  Also, are you getting an error when it won't let you send mail?

Thanks,
SonicBoom

@evilseph
sonic can't have entered the details incorrectly if you can recieve emails with this account

please tell me what email client you are using - i/we can't help you if we don't know what software you are using

Opera Mail Client - M2 and Outlook Express.

SonicBoom, PM on the way.

Edit: problem fixed.

I AM VERIFIED BOW DOWN TO ME

* dom. slaps luis_amendola around a bit with a large trout.

Hmmm, I quite fancy one of these email addresses.

* musicalmidget sends PM.

PM sent

I'm verified on all 3 lol..

waiting for the other 2

my verification was done quick and simple...

how do you know if the e-mail was given to you?

Use Plus!'s POP3 function, of course

what are the smtp and the pop3 servers ?

nice I want a mail of plus
*pm to SonicBoom *

works fine with me, thank you SonicBoom and Patchou

humm... smtp works fine... pop3 not though. :/

it works 100% fine with me. Thanks Patchou and SonicBoom

I hope I manage to get one it all happens when i was away didnt it

That's what I thought when I got home.

I think there are still some left, I managed to get one yesturday.

Thanks, Patchou/Sonicboom!

Have you checked your pm's?  I setup your account yesterday, and sent you the details...

Got mine, thanks sonicboom nice and quick too

i can't send mail with mine. i'm asked for the password and username, i type it correctly, but i have to type it until i click cancel.

just requested, waiting for answer

Hi,

For your outgoing mail server, please use the one your isp gives you to use.  I will get smtp.blueshore.net back up as soon as i can.

Please note, that i am no longer accepting requests for email accounts, at least for a little bit.  I may open it up again, but we have about 100 users with emails, and it's a pain to enter them all in by hand

Thank you for your patience,
SonicBoom

erm requested twice...1st time u ask me to provide the username along with the password but i 4got, 2nd time u didnt reply...

i requested b4 they ran out, pls read my mail! lol

so my request (that was sent yesterday- before you posted you stopped) will be fulfilled or not?

i know you didnt read it (Message Tracking)

And mine still doesnt work. :/

I assume that I was unsuccessful in obtaining an address.

A PM was sent when this thread had just broken out onto a second page (IIRC).

Ah well, easy come, easy go.

i' using Outlook Express, no problem with the receiving part but can't send anything... i hope the smtp get better soon

Mail me at cookie@msgplus.net

My Outgoing mail server does not work. Whats the address its receives well my email address is Dan_N7650@msgplus.net feel free to add me to MSN messenger...... and get this fixed for me pls......

SonicBoom, I know this sounds totally stupid, but i havent got a CLUE who my ISP is.

SonicBoom, I know this sounds totally stupid, but i havent got a CLUE if i can mix the @msgplus.net account with my ISP's SMTP
And If I can, the mail is gonna be sent trought the @msgplus.net account right?


btw ISP: Internet Service Provider

Sendt a PM 9 days ago, still, i have no email-account.. why's that?

msgplus@msgplus.net lol

kryptonate@msgplus.net  works fine for me

I already solved it, it asked me for a pwd but the box where I had to put it was behind my outlook screen thx to microsoft .

To clarify some things, yes you can combine the two servers.

I.E. if my ISP is ISP.com and they told me to use smtp.isp.com for outgoing mail, my msgplus accoutn settings would look like this:

Incoming mail: pop3.blueshore.net
Outgoing mail: smtp.isp.com

Username / Password

As long as you set the reply to address, and email address to your @msgplus.net email account, it will look and act exactly the same way.

Also, if you arn't sure what your ISP's outgoing mail server is, call them!  Your ISP loves to hear from you!

SonicBoom

It don't work by me.
My mail adres is Erwin@msgplus.net
If I want to send a mail I have this error.

I use as smtp server smtp.isp.com

see the Attachment

english plz...

Is your ISP (Internet Service Provider) isp.com? SonicBoom said that as an example. Instead of isp.com you must put your real isp.

Kinda defeats purpose of having a pop3 outside of one`s own isp.....can recieve but not send.........isp i`m on allows one user period,signed up for this with assumtion that could send and recieve on a seperate server[font=Trebuchet MS]

is the smtp server back up yet?

ive sent off

SonicBoom, should i nag you by email if you ignored my request? 
( i sent it a day before you said you stopped- still in Unread Messages)

FWI, incoming mail is now down, as the entire server went down, and I won't be able to bring it back up until i get physical access to it Monday...

YEAH just noticed it..........

Please post support requests here:
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=14583

Note: I am openning up registration for email addresses as soon as the server comes back online Monday.  Please simply send me a PM.  It is important you include both a username and a password.

Please don't send me multiple PM's simply because you don't think I received the first.  Also, please do not email me requests for email addresses.

Thank you,
SonicBoom
