Server Allocation
Your server allocation is the maximum amount of data you can FTP/upload to your web site. This is done by way of a 'quota' limit and can easily be increased at any time.
Email Facilities
With each package you get Unlimited AutoResponders. AutoResponders can be setup to automatically distribute information to your customers or simply notify them when you will return from holiday to answer their emails. In addition to your POP3 Accounts you get Unlimited Forwarders. For example you could forward all email addressed to sales@yourdomain.com to an external Email address such as a personal Hotmail account.
FTP
With all the packages we give you Unlimited FTP access. We do not limit the amount of data transferred nor do we limit upload/download speed.

These include the popular text based counter system and various web form to email scripts.
