Email Management

Most business web hosting packages will provide some email management capabilities.  The sophistication of email services, however, depend on the business web hosting package that you purchase.  Examples of email services that are available include the following:

ability to set-up one of more e-mail addresses for your domain name
ability to define rules to filter to out spam mail
ability to send or view email via a web-based application
ability to send or view email via a package such as Outlook or Eudora
ability to respond to incoming emails with predefined acknowledgements
ability to store large volumes of emails on the mail server
ability to create a mailbox on your business website
ability to generate emails from data entered into an electronic form

Small businesses that wish to include an email address on their website (e.g. for data entered forms, e-mail box) ought to use a "disposable" email address as such addresses are often picked up and used for spam purposes.  If you encounter serious spam issues, you can then easily change the email address and use a different "disposable" email address on your site.
