anyone doing it? If so, how did it work out for you?

dougeetx · 06-27-2007, 04:53 PM

I was doing it with a couple of my domains. It worked very smoothly. I'm going to be doing the same with VideoSlacker.com really soon. The only thing, though, is that you don't get the option to advertise in the emails anywhere and you have to put a link to the actual login. For instance, my site was Reality TV Friends.com . I had to put a link to http://mail.google.com/a/realitytvfriends.com/ in order for my peeps to login. It breaks out of frames, too.

To signup, go to http://www.google.com/a/

I use gmail to check the mail from my cox account, to take advantage of gmail's superior spam filtering. No more having to download 1500 emails a day and letting thunderbird filter out whats spam and whats not.

I also send out email thru my cox account using gmail.

I do use it. It's good because normally I host my own email and now because everyone gets 2gb accounts thats using that much less server space keeping my costs down.

Pretty brandable too

just looked into this, it looks cool

but having a problem setting up the mx records in dns, can anyone post an example of how it should look? Google gives instructions for control panels, but i do my dns records manually.

in the setup it says to test your account you can just forward your mail to gmail which I think I will do for a while before actually modifying my mx record
