Why Should You Consider PSPINC...

Why Should You Consider PSPINC for your Web and Email Hosting?

Aren’t all hosting companies basically the same? If so, why shouldn’t you just choose the cheapest option for your web and email? This argument would be valid if the idea that “all hosting companies are the same” was true, but that is just not the case. When you look at websites of hosting companies, they all look alike. In fact, even I can’t tell why some hosting companies’ prices are so much different from others.

So we should really look at the history of web and email outsourcing. When we started our hosting business in 1996, we provided a mere 10MB of web and 10MB of email storage for $75 per month, which was very inexpensive at the time. Currently, we provide 1,000 times the space for both web and email for about $21 per month. If you were to pay the same rate as you were 1996, your current service from PSPINC would cost $75,000. This means we have reduced our price 99.972% in last 16 years.

One reason we could do this is because we build all our infrastructure and back-end software ourselves. We own and constantly update and upgrade our software and hardware to remain up-to-date and competitive without over-spending. We do not license software from other companies. We are primarily a hosting company, but we are also a software development company with almost 25 years of industry experience. We have been building software since the days of MD-DOS, Apple Talk and 8086 Assembly Language. I have worked with IBM mainframe network SNA since I graduated from the college in 1983. I have been working with large-area private and public network since when there was no internet or even Compuserve or AOL.

Are we better than other hosting companies? Because different clients have different needs, I can’t comment on “better or worse”, but we are certainly different. Our pricing is about same as any other major hosting company in the US or around the world, but we can serve you better because we built our products ourselves. If there is a problem, we can fix it right away rather than wait for the original software development company. We can communicate with the most sophisticated engineers and web developers because we know what we are doing.

So when you are choosing which company to trust with your web and email, you should give us a call. We are a different kind of hosting company, working to provide the most reliable and affordable solutions for your business needs. We are different and proud of it.

Switch from POP3 to IMAP

POP3 to IMAP

As you know, we have upgraded your email server system from POP3 to IMAP/POP3. Using IMAP allows you to sync email between your PC and any mobile devices, like a tablet or smartphone.

If you have decided to move from POP3 to IMAP, great! However, please read these instructions before making the changeover, or else you may inadvertently lose all of your email, like I just did (fortunately I had everything backed up).

First, to recap, the difference between POP3 and IMAP is that you store your all your email on your PC with POP3, and on a server with IMAP. When you switch from POP3 to IMAP, all your new email will stay on the server, but do not forget that all your old emails are still on your PC. This is what I did. Once I had set up IMAP on my PC and made sure it worked, I deleted my POP3 setup on my mail software, which also deleted all the email stored on my PC.

That is what you should not do when you switch to IMAP.

The first step to properly switching to IMAP is to take your POP3 email client software offline, meaning it will not send or receive any email. Once your email software is offline, create a backup of your email. Once this is done, instead of the modifying current POP3 setup to IMAP (which many email clients will not let you do anyway), create a new account within your email client for IMAP. Send or receive an email to make sure IMAP is working.

When that is complete, you should have both POP3 (now offline) and IMAP (now working) set up on your email client. That is how the system should work while you are transitioning your email from POP3 to IMAP.

You can then start copying emails from your PC to the IMAP server by creating folders for the IMAP account, and dragging and dropping email from your PC to the server. When all your emails are moved or copied to the IMAP server and you confirm that they are there, you can delete the POP3 account from your email software.

Remember, IMAP takes a lot of disk space on the server, so make sure you have enough for all your email. If you do not have enough space on the server, you will need to add more space by asking your provider, in this case PSP Inc.

IMAP is a wonderful system for people who have more than one device they use to access email, but to take advantage of it, you need to transfer your email safely. If you need assistance transferring from POP3 to IMAP, PSP Inc. support is happy to work with you.
