Thanks for the replies but I am confused. Aren't I supposed to connect to a hostony email server instead of the one at my ISP? What I wanted to know if this is the case is what server name do I use? Is it like mail.hostony.com? I know how to add an account for my ISP but do I check for my mail sent to me at my website on my own mail server? huh.gif

thanks,
digidiva

Please use e.g. yourdomainname.com as a mail server and everything will be all right.
