pyost 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2008 Domain as in https://www.1and1.com/website-builder, i.e. a top-level domain name (com, net, org etc.), so you won't be able to use Google Mail's service if you use a subdomain. But don't worry - the "offer" isn't limited. It is how things will work from now on, so you can take your time accumulating myCENTs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If not, which i think is the case, when is the deadline for transfer? iam a bit slow in understanding stuff Edited October 30, 2008 by khalilov (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pyost 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2008 I was talking about the new Credits System, but I misunderstood your question - I was saying that Xisto will continue providing hosting services based on myCENTs indefinitely, but the same doesn't go for the old Credits System. I am not sure for how long it will operate, but you safest bet would be to transfer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is mydomain here just mysite, or mysite.astahostMaybe you already understood from pyost answer, else here is how I would explain the way the myname@mydomain is related to mydomain.com which is related to mysubdomain.astahost.comIf you have your own domain (http://www.something.com/ for instance) you master the DNS entries for this domain. Of course everything is easier if Xisto is your provider because he makes everything automatically compatible with Xisto, but in pure theory you own the DNS entries of your domain and you put what is needed.If this domain is parked on your Xisto subdomain (something.astahost.com for instance), when you connect to your Xisto cpanel you master how the mails to this domain are redirected to the DNS of your mail provider.And if your domain mail is hosted by google (basic free way or enterprise expensive way), the DNS of your mail provider are these provided by google in your google apps domain mail management settings tags and you enter them in your Xisto cpanel mail configuration tag.I don't know if what I explained here is clear enough. If I am wrong, maybe Opaque or BuffaloHelp could explain it more precisely if they happen read this post.RegardsYordan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
