-> ARTICLE #1: Sending Spam E-mail From Your Account ===========
---> Relevant for SD, VD, CP Accounts ==========================
================================================================

Do you hate spam? Please don't add to the problem. If you own
a web based business, sending unsolicited e-mails (spam) is NOT
going to get you more customers. But here is what it will get:

1. Your WSO account will be closed with no refund.
2. You will possibly cause our mail servers to be blacklisted.
3. You will receive more complaints and hassles than customers.

Please only send e-mails to people that have signed up to
receive them. And even then, make it very easy for those people
to be removed from future mailings if they desire.

Read our full policy document, which includes a section on
e-mail:

http://www.wso.net/policy.htm

Our policies are no different than most other web hosting
companies. But we don't hide them. They are presented at the
time of ordering, they are sent via e-mail when your account is
set up, and they are always available on our web site.

These policies allow us to maintain a high level of service and
to weed out abusers (and potential abusers) that could adversely
affect the quality of service to our good customers.

-> ARTICLE #2: Improve Your Mail Checking Speed ================
---> Relevant for SD, VD, CP Accounts ==========================
================================================================

While we are on the subject of e-mail, lets talk about an
important e-mail setting. In most e-mail programs there is a
setting that allows you to "leave the mail on the server."

Make sure this setting is not enabled. Each time you check your
mail, a temporary copy of your mail file is made. The larger
your mail file is, the longer it takes to copy. This is one of
the main reasons for an initial delay in checking e-mail.

Make sure you have this set to NO or OFF to be sure your mail
file stays small and fast. If this setting was already off, and
you still have a long delay before your mail is checked, let
us know. You may have stuck mail.

-> ARTICLE #3: Love Those Extra Domains ========================
---> Relevant for VD & CP Customers ============================
================================================================

Do you own more than one web site? Do you have a couple of small
sites that you administer for others?  Why not save some money
and add them to your main account as $5 per month Extra Domains?

Find out all of the details here:
http://www.wso.net/edomain.htm

Think of it - if you currently have a Virtual Domain account for
$34.95 per month and you add just one Extra Domain account, you
are paying just under $20 per web site. You've almost cut your
per site cost in half!  Add a few more and you are really
getting the most out of your WSO account.

Looking for even more convenience? You can order a new domain
registration while placing the Extra Domain order. Dot com's,
net's and org's are only $20 per year and you FULLY own the
domain name, we register it on your behalf. Other domain
extensions are available as well, like .info, .biz and more.

If you need an additional full account because an Extra Domain
just won't cut it, let us know. We have multi-account discounts
available.

Please let us know if you have any questions by e-mailing
support@wso.net.
