FAQs
  • How long does it take to set up Microsoft hosted Exchange service?

    Start setting up mailboxes immediately after signup. If concerns about fraud or spamming exist, activation may take up to 24 hours.

  • How much mailbox storage is available?

    Each mailbox comes with 2GB of free storage. Purchase up to 8 GB of additional storage per mailbox with a limit of 10GB per mailbox.

  • Do I need my own domain?

    Yes. We can use your existing domain or help you create a new domain during setup.

  • Is there a dedicated Exchange server for each Microsoft Exchange domain?

    We securely distribute accounts across multiple servers so your data is not held on a single, dedicated Exchange server. This reduces the risk of domain-wide outages and reduces your cost. If you need a dedicated Exchange server, explore options here.

  • Is my mail secure?

    Yes. All transmissions between your device, destination devices, and our servers are transmitted over secure HTTPS connections with the latest SSL encryption techniques.
