Hey InTheMarket, Thanks for the link! $299 is not a bad price at all considering the cost of higher end programs out there. I guess it would be worth it if I needed to speed things up a bit. How are the forms setup? Are they still filled with webbots or do they use CGI/perl?

Automation is a good thing if you start to fall behind on your projects, but I agree, handcoding is a lot more fun! You can write code much cleaner than the proprietary code you get with FP or DW. And, if you?re not careful, you can grow dependent on those programs and start to get lazy!:sleep:

The only thing I will miss is being able to edit a site live! FTP is OK, but will never be as good as live editing. I'm sure that all of the other great design features will make up for it though. I've actually gotten used to hand coding sites for the last year or two, but it will be nice for...

Thanks Stephen, I did make two minor changes since I posted this. On the MX record, I removed the "mailsite" name and left it blank because it automatically defaults to the base Domain. And secondly, on the CNAME section, I tried to make the "NAME" > "mail.clientDomain.com", but it won't let...

Ok fellow techies... please tell me this is correct! Custom MX records mailsite.clientdomain.com IN MX 1 mail.theirhost.com [/IMG] [/URL] Custom CNAME records smtp.clientdomain.com 86400 IN CNAME smtp.theirhost.com...

Got ya! I will be attempting that in just a bit. I just want to make sure that I place the correct "name" in there for each one. I know what the actual addresses are, but I want to make sure that the $ORIGIN is correct when I am done. No problem Penhall. This has been a long and confusing...

Stephen, I will try that and see how it works. However, there is no reference of SMTP currently shown under the CNAME area. There is just one that references mail5.mydomain.com. But, I'll go ahead and add the ones you suggest. Thanks. Penhall, Before I made any changes on the JH side, I called...

OK, did that already. I was looking at the CNAME area too. I am not sure what that does but I will have to Google it to find out. Same with A records. I hope that the way it is now, it will work. I don't want my client to be calling me in 24 hours complaining again. Thanks again Stephen!

OK, so I have to make a custom A Record for SMTP then or, should I just keep the MX record for incoming and delete the smtp record?

Stephen, I just set it up like this: Custom MX records mailsite.*****.com IN MX 1mail.*****.com mailsite.*****.com IN MX 1 smtp.*****.com Does this look correct to you?

Cool! Thanks Stephen! You guys are great and I really appreciate all of your input!:D

Penhall & Stephen, OK! I think this might be starting to happen now. I spoke with my customer and asked them to call their ISP and ask for mail settings. They gave me settings for both the mail Domain and the SMTP Domain. They also told my customer that they will not only receive their Domain...

I guess I will have to have them contact their ISP. You see, the problem here is that they are upset with me due to email problems and they pretty much "demanded" today that I find a resolution, and fast! They expect me to know what to do on my own and if they think that I don't, they will drop...

Penhall, I may be way off base with this but... is it possible for an email host to setup a special suffix for their mail server address? I guess what I mean is, could they setup their own domain and include a suffix that would reference my customers Domain? Does this make any sense to you?

My client already has a local ISP/Host picked out that they want to use. They want to keep their website hosted with me because they like the speed of our server. They want to be able to use their email @domain.com from the ISP. They want to be able to send and receive just like they would be...

Hi Guys, Sorry...I had to leave for a couple of hours. Well, again I appreciate all of your input. So, let me take a stab at this then and please tell me if I am on the right track. First, I tell them to have their alternate host setup their email account. I am assuming that for them to do...

Hi Penhall, I appreciate your response. Let me explain why I am doing this for them. I have been hosting their website and email for a few months. But they have been having a lot of problems with the email service and don't want to use it anymore. They want to move their email to another...

Hey all, I was hoping someone could help me on this one. I am going to be setting up Custom MX Records for a clients' Domain so that they can use an alternate external email account. I already know how to do this but I have a question about how they can setup their email addresses on their...

Stephen, thanks for answering my question about Windows support. Also, I was unaware that subwebs don't work even if you set them up with web admin! I have only setup one subweb to date, but have never really finished it. I guess it's good to know that I probably shouldn't, since it may cause...

Stephen, Does this include any FP websites on Windows Servers? The email I got from you guys said Linux only. Is that correct? The MS website says that they are not dropping FP extension support on Windows and Unix servers. Can you clear this up for me once and for all? Thanks!
