How do I use the Email Services?
In principle we offer 4 different email services:
- Email addresses ( POP and IMAP email addresses )
- Email Alias ( small email distributors lists & additional addresses )
- Email Newsletters and Work group lists with archiving.
- Email ( and DNS ) Backup Mail server.

1. Simple email addresses
The Mails can be called up by means of:
- IMAP - Via IMAP Mail-Client Program.
- POP - Via POP3 Mail-Client Program.
- WEBMAIL http://sonance.net/mail/ and/or http://sonance.net/mail2/ (BETA-TEST)
As an IMAP/POP – Mail Client Program We recommend
Mozilla’s Thunderbird
Initially, each new domain gets ONE email address to which ALL email on this domain will be set to. (CATCH-ALL function) I.e. the address info@yourdomain.org gets ALL email that contain your domain name, e.g. also mails sent to: xyz@yourdomain.org.
NOTE: The CATCH-ALL function is Spam friendly. Try from the beginning on to define individual email addresses for your project, in order to be able to deactivate the CATCH -ALL function as soon as possible!
You also receive a Mandatory Mail alias as follows: yourdomain@sonance.net , which you are always welcomed to use.
Additional email addresses, small mail distributors, alias and changes of password will be able to be administered in the future on the new system via Web interface.
A new tool is also intended for large email lists such as news distributors and discussion lists, which permits an independent construction and administration of large distributors and email archives.
