having emails and web on different locations
Permalink
Hello support,
My web mastewr is using Concerte 5 and the current website is located on Ipower. He is having issues with the Concrete 5 on Ipower. He wants to go to a location called Site5. I want to keep the emails on Ipower. He is saying the emails and website has to be on the same location. I want to avoid moving the website. What do you suggest?

you can have the webserver and emails on different servers, for example, i have my emails hosted by Google
I've moved email accounts for an entire business consisting of hundred thousands of emails per account. So this is not a real problem, nor difficult. Just make sure you've backups, that's all :)
I can highly recommend you http://www.broobles.com/imapsize/... if you want to actually move imap accounts.
It's even much easier when you've Outlook.
Your emails aren't tied to your hosting, but it makes sense to keep them together just because it makes administration easier.
If you're a business you should really care for encrypted emails also. Most businesses still rely on regular email for highly critical stuff. That's a really bad idea, because email's are publicly readble from:
1. The government
2. Every man in the middle who knows howto capture your sent/incoming mails.

Just saw this... actually looks like the real issue is the DNS setup. You can have the MX(mail) record on the DNS point to a different server than the A or C record.
I appreciate your help.
