ADXNET Mail Server Changed

Google have been running a private beta test of their "Google Hosted" program for the past few months, and as soon as I heard about the service I put an application in on behalf of Accidental Discharge.

Google Hosted is a service that replaces the default mail server on a users domain. For instance, a few members of Accidental Discharge have "user@accidental-discharge.com" and "user@adxnet.org" email addresses, but the interface that is used to log in to the mail service can be a little bit slow, and not very user friendly.

It is my pleasure to announce that Accidental Discharge has been accepted for the private beta test of Google Hosted. This replaces Accidental Discharge's user interface with the interface of Google Mail (Gmail) instead. Anyone that has used the service knows what a fantastic interface it is, and they know of the 2 Gigabyte+ storage space made available to users. All of these benefits are passed onto Accidental Discharge members.


If you are interested in having your own "user@adxnet.org" email address with the reliability of Google backing it, please email me (brad.rowden@gmail.com). After I do a bit of initial testing with the service I will start enabling some accounts for anyone that is interested.

I will keep you up to date with any news as it comes.
