In need of recommendations on E-Mail Host Solution:

My web host provider recently upgraded the e-mail server for all customers on shared hosting accounts. While it is more secure - it has also created a serious issue - the issue is that important e-mail messages are not being delivered. I have changed/tweaked the e-mail settings in the control panel to no avail (white list, grey list, black list, spam settings, etc.) some messages are still not getting delivered even though addresses are white listed. Have had to resort to giving out two addresses. This also helped confirm some messages are not being delivered. Enough on that little rant. What I am looking for suggestions on dedicated E-mail Hosting Providers.

Also setting up my own server is not an option.

Thanks for your time in reading this post and offering ideas on providers.

Thanks for the ideas - although AIM and Yahoo will not work in this case. I have a specific domain name that needs to be utilized, 15 mailboxes, option to add more easily, e-mail alias' and create forward commands are also important pieces. Further I need to be able to manage the mailboxes, spam settings, white list, grey list, black list, and possibly have a challange system as well. POP3, SMTP, IMAP, SSL, TLS, web access, and multiple e-mail client compatibility is also important be it Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Eudora, OS X Mail.APP, Entourage, Thunderbird, ChatterEmail, Snapper Mail, Evolution, etc.

I have done a fair amount of reading, researching and reviewing of different providers and options for this very niche type of hosting solution. Wanted to share some of what I found during this process. One of the resources that proved invaluable was EmailAddresses dot com Forum.

Here is a list of a few providers in no particular order. Further I am not making any recommendations or endocements with the following list. Just wanting to put a list out there to help people get started in their search if they happen to be looking for this type of service in future: http://www.runbox.com \ http://www.fastmail.fm \ http://www.fusemail.com \ http://www.tuffmail.com \ http://www.everyone.net \ http://www.godaddy.com \ http://www.geekJam.com \ http://www.registerfly.com \ http://www.google.com \ http://www.msn.com \ coming soon http://www.aol.com
