True POP3 Email Accounts
The smallest full package 2serveU.net offers
includes 5 POP3 email accounts and the allowances only go up from
there! POP3 email accounts have been re-defined by many hosts in
that they are dependant on you ISP (Internet Service Provider) to
handle all of your outgoing mail (SMTP) and are not fully functional.
On the other hand, a full POP3 email account is for receiving AND
sending email, without depending on your ISP.
At 2serveU.net our Hosting Plans come
with your own Email Server,
and each POP3 account offered by 2serveU.net allows you to use your
own Domain Name for the incoming and outgoing mail server
settings to send AND receive independantly.
All of our Hosting Plans all come with multiple POP Email accounts,
each with robust features such as unlimited Aliasing, Forwarding,
and Autoresponders...so pick the Plan
that is right for you or your Company, and sign up for a FREE
10 Day Trial.
Auto-Configure Email Account
2serveU Hosting has made it easy to set
up your POP3 Email Accounts for Outlook and Outlook Express. Just
hit the Outlook (Express) AutoConfig
link in your Control Panel next to any POP3 account you create,
and your Email Program will automatically configure that account
for you . . . it's Magic!
Catch-All Email Account
We understand the importance of email for online interactions. For
this reason we set-up your domain's primary POP email account to
receive mail even if the name of the address has a typo in it! A
Catch-All Email account is an account that will accept any mail
directed to your domain name that is not otherwise specified. If
you have an email address such as, bobby@yourdomain.com
and someone accidentally sends mail to bob@yourdomain.com
this email will not be lost or bounced back. Instead it will be
automatically directed to your catch-all account to help save you
from losing important messages! You can change your default Catch-All
address at any time from your Control Panel.
Web Based Email
2serveU Hosting offers 3
WebMail Programs instead of just one. WebMail offers
you easy access to all of your website email accounts through a
web browser from anywhere in the world, on Any computer! We offer
the popular Neo-Mail, Horde, & Squirrel Mail. They each have
all of the functionality needed for a web based email client, including
strong MIME support, address books, and folder manipulation. Using
WebMail you can compose, send, and receive email with your 2serveU.net
hosted email accounts directly from the web! WebMail works with
most any browser, from any type of internet connection. All you
need is your email address and password.
Unlimited Aliases
The email aliasing feature allows you to have multiple addresses
for one POP mailbox. For example, you could have sales@abc.com
and info@abc.com and help@abc.com
as aliases to a single POP mailbox. This makes receiving mail
from multiple accounts easy, since they all arrive at your specified
POP mailbox.
Note: Email Aliases only work
for receiving mail. For sending mail, you will use one of
your POP email accounts. Our Hosting Plans all come with multiple
POP Email accounts, each with unlimited Aliasing...so pick
the Plan that is right for you or your Company.
Unlimited Email Forwarding
You can easily set up E-mail forwarding on any email account for
your domain though your web control panel. You can redirect or forward
E-mail received to any other email addresses on the Internet. For
example, e-mail addressed to sales@yourdomain.com
could be forwarded to products@yourdomain.com,
or to your AOL mailbox, or your sales manager's email account at
Yahoo, etc.
Unlimited Autoresponders
Autoresponders are very handy little tools, when the need arises
to offer a visitor an immediate explanation of a product or service
via email quickly and automatically. Autoresponders are a way to
have a visitor send an email to a particular address by which they
instantly receive a response predefined by you. You can create each
response using up to 1000 characters. You can set up as many Autoresponders
as you like within your account when you are hosted with 2serveU.net!
Mailing List Manager
2serveU Hosting has a powerful Mailing
list Manager for you to use with any of our Web Hosting Plans. This
versatile tool enables you to easily create various types of mailing
lists such as announcement-only lists and general discussions lists.
You may setup the mailing list so that only you can send messages
out to your subscribers or in such a way that you and your subscribers
can send email to each other much like a message forum.
E-commerce /Shopping Carts

online store! All of our Web Hosting Plans

web address for ecommerce transactions. 2serveU
Hosting includes a 1024 bit Digital SSL Certificate from
Equifax that will handle all of your needs, and is included Free
with all hosting plans! To view it on our server go to https://www.2serveU.net
. . .

create one and install it for you for just $30/year... then your
secure address will be https://www.yoursite.com
Note: Individual SSL Certificates
require a dedicated IP address which is $2/mo. for Starter and Bronze
Plans, FREE with Silver and Gold Plans!
Dedicated IP Address
2serveU Hosting offers a FREE Dedicated
IP Address with our Silver and Gold Plans (if
requested). We can add a dedicated IP to any hosting plan
for only $2 /mo. If you are planning on selling products via ecommerce,
or if you want to have multiple FTP accounts you will need to have
a Dedicated IP.
Password Protected Folders
Use your Cpanel™ (Control Panel) to easily point and click
your way to password-protected directories. If you have a development-only
area of your web site, or a section specifically for family/friends,
or possibly a pay-per-view section you'll certainly want to password
protect it so the Internet at large cannot gain access to view the
contents. With the Cpanel™ you will be able to password protect
any part of your web site as desired.
Personal cgi-bin
If you want to run scripts on your web site you need a CGI-BIN!
Every Hosting package at 2serveU.net includes a personal cgi-bin
for all of your custom scripts!
One-click Addon Scripts
2serveU Hosting makes it simple to install
interactive features to your website from your Cpanel™
web control panel. You can easily install some of the most powerful
features with just ONE-CLICK - install PHP-BB (the best
bulletin board /forum), or or
the popular osCommerce (Shopping Cart), or the Agora Cart(Shopping
Cart), or PHP-Nuke (Content Manager), or PHP-Wiki
(Collaborative Editor) or set up a nice chatroom with PhpMyChat.
Powerful features were never so easy!
Pre-installed CGI scripts
There are a number of CGI scripts that almost all web sites require.
Rather than having to install these scripts yourself, you can do
it through your Control Panel. Just click on the feature you would
like to add, fill in the boxes, and click "Create" and
your script will be automatically generated! Just copy the code
and paste into the HTML of your page. There are scripts for guest
books, mail forms, counters, clocks, date countdown, banner rotator,
adding a search function (search engine) to your site, and more!
PHP 4
All of our Hosting Plans support the latest versions of PHP scripting.
PHP enables you to create dynamic web pages, and is very popular
and easy to learn. PHP-enabled web pages are treated just as standard
HTML pages and you can create and edit them the same way you normally
create regular HTML pages. PHP is language that gets things done
without having to utilize many scripts to accomplish the tasks!

Customizable Error Pages
It's a given that at one time or another someone is going to type
in the wrong URL, or try to enter an area of your web site that
isn't there, or is forbidden. With a 2serveU.net
Hosting Plan, you can alter the "Page Not Found", or Forbidden
warnings to show up any way you want. With your Cpanel, you can
easily create Custom Error Pages for the following: 400 (Bad Request),
401 (Authorization Required), 403 (Forbidden), 404 (Wrong Page),
and 500 (Internal Server Error). You may edit these pages in any
way you see fit, offering links back to your home page so your visitors
remain on your site rather than drifting off into cyber space .
. . because of a bad link or miss-typed URL.
Perl, Perl Script, Modules
Perl is a high-level programming language. It derives from the ubiquitous
C programming language and to a lesser extent from sed, awk, the
Unix shell, and at least a dozen other tools and languages. Perl's
process, file, and text manipulation facilities make it particularly
well-suited for tasks involving quick prototyping, system utilities,
software tools, system management tasks, database access, graphical
programming, networking, and world wide web programming. CGI scripts
are often written in Perl.
All 2serveU.net Web Hosting Packages come
equipped with hundreds of pre-installed Perl Modules which you can
view from your Cpanel™.
Mime Types Support
Adds the ability for serving multiple content types. MIME encodes
the files using one of two encoding methods and decodes it back
to its original format at the receiving end. A MIME header is added
to the file which includes the type of data contained and the encoding
method used. The MIME "type" has become the de facto standard
for describing files on the Internet. You will probably never need
to create a custom mime type, but if you do: your Cpanel™ has
a list of all the common programs and their associated extensions,
which you can add to or modify.
SSI (Server Side Includes)
Some servers disallow SSI (Server Side Includes), which comes standard
with every 2serveU.net hosting package
at no charge! This allows you more control over your web site and
makes large sites a great deal easier to keep updated.
Streaming Audio/Video
All of our Hosting Plans support Flash / Shockwave / Mp3 / Windows
Media Files / and all forms of Streaming Audio/Video (including
RealAudio & RealVideo) FREE as a standard feature. Unlike most
Hosting Companies, 2serveU.net does not
charge any extra fees for this service.
MySQL Databases
SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is an international
standard in querying and retrieving information from databases.
MySQL is essentially an SQL server - it responds to requests for
information that are written in SQL. You can communicate with MySQL
using a wide variety of programming languages (PHP being one of
the most common). MySQL is Open Source software and free for use.
All of our Web Hosting Packages include at least 1 Database as
a standard feature. Choose mySQL for fast data retrieval or the
new PostgreSQL for larger applications. You can create them from
your Cpanel, and then manage them through SSH, or use our pre-installed
Database Manager (phpMyAdmin.)
For more information about mySQL visit http://mysql.com
