If you own a domain name, and do provide email accounts to few people, you would have faced issues with mail box size limit on these accounts at least once.
Mail accounts added to your hosting account uses portion of your web hosting disk space, hence often pose a headache to you and you may even get alerts from your webhost informing about the high disk space usage alerts.
Google has provided a very good solution to this problem – Google Apps.
Google currently provide two variants of this service – standard and premium. Standard version of Google apps is free while premium version is priced but obviously with some value additions to the product.
For using Google apps for email, you need to point your domain name’s MX entry to Google’s servers. By default your MX entry will be pointed to your existing host’s nameservers which need to be changed. Once this process is done, you can send receive mails from your email ids managed from the Google Apps.
You can have email ids like you@yourdomain.com , bust still use features of GMail along with other features of Google such as Calendar, Docs, notebook etc.
So are you the one with a 5MB mail account at your domain name? Isn’t it the time to change it to a 6GB mail account?
