Can anyone recomend a good reliable hosting company - need to host 2 domains. One domain needs a very small website with one catch all mailbox and the other. Just 3 mailboxes. Both require external access to the mailboxes and webmail would be nice for the mailboxes.

E-mail to gizzard

I know of far, far too many people who have been treated very badly by 1&1.

How about helping those who help PH

Click the banner in the Top right and join the Army of PH'rs who take their hosting from a fellow PH'r

All sales gratefully put towards PistonHead Machinery!

I use riconian and must say I have been mighty happy with the service and little leeway and help I have been given at times.

Top bloke is Mr Rico even if he prefers a Chimp to A GRIFFITH

I've got two websites hosted with 34SP, it's cheap (£15 per year) and loaded with really rich website features. Never had problems with outage or poor server performance. They are definitely worth a look.

Generally second the advice to go with a part of the register1/serverstream empire. My second site will be moving over to them after the deal runs out with "Fast"Hosts.

Up the Empire!

Why wait, move it now and I will extend your hosting to match the length of time you have left with them, so you're not out of pocket and you get to enjoy REAL fast hosting for longer

Just raise a ticket once you've moved over, mention that you've moved in from FH and that I Promised you an extension.

Ditto. Service (with the exception of one minor hiccup) has been perfect for me - that's 5 domains, 3 websites including transfers from other host and numerous mailboxes.

So, Muncher, who are you with? Obviously someone that can't provide you with email abilities as I haven't received anything.....
