Hello everyone,

I registered a company recently. i need a a service and i got a good bargain. the company now require me to send an email to them through a proper company email like ml@xyz.com because they dont accept free web based email like yahoo. I need to get back to them today.

My intention was to setup my website in 2 weeks. i dont want to lose the offer. What can i do?

Cheers

Can you not purchase the domain name now and set up a holding page "under construction" is a favourite) but start using the email functions now?

Echo post 2 on this. I remember paying about £2/month for email on its own when we started the company (up to 5 addresses) from a well-known, reputable supplier. There are several to use who offer this service.

Buying the domain wont cost you much (exactly how much depends on if its .com or .uk or another).

If you buy the domain from 123-reg (or I am sure others) you can set up email forwarding for free. You can then given them YourName@YourDomain.com as the email address and this will just forward to your normal hotmail account whilst you get your website (or more accurately hosting) sorted

It takes 24 hours to register a domain and hosting but emails will be activated straight away.
