Customer Portal Upgrades

Friday, June 13th, 2008

Over the past year we have been working hard on our customer portal giving customers the ability to manage many aspects of their account. Below are just some of the features available (recent additions in bold).

  • View upcoming domain renewals
  • Manage email addresses and groups
  • Ability to manage email accounts (mailboxes)
  • Ability to setup out-of-office messages with automated start/end dates
  • Full control of DNS records on your domains
  • Payment history (if your account is direct debit enabled)
  • View antivirus statistics for your domains.
  • Create and view support tickets
  • and much more…

It is now also possible for users with email accounts to log into the portal using their normal username and password (the same details you would use in Outlook or our webmail). This gives you the following abilities.

  • View mailbox details and disk usage
  • One-click access to webmail
  • The ability to change your own password
  • Manage out-of-office messages including automated start/end dates
  • Ability to see all email addresses you recieve mail for, as well as the ability to view antivirus reports for these addresses (where available)

No website or email hosting customers will have been affected by this.
