    Default transfering the website

    Hello
    we are hosting our websit on an budget account
    and we want to upgrade it
    because we want to hoste 3 or 4 websites (to a reseller account)
    (or to a semi dedicated if we can host multible websites)

    1 is it possible that our website is transferd
    with all the existing emails and their settings (eg the pop server will be the same?)to the new one ?

    2on our server we sometimes have the problem that we cant login anymore, normaly it is when disk (in our case /home) is over 97% full
    is a reseller account also shared with so many accounts

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Yes, you can have everything transferred. Yes, the POP server will be the same if you specified it using your domain name rather than the server hostname or IP.

    Reseller accounts are on shared servers hosting many reseller accounts.

    I recommend you POP to domain.com. There's no reason to add the sub-domain "mail." if you're POPping from your main server.

    thanks for the recommendation
    but we already have the sub-domain, and our people are quite old and in hole Zambia somewhere in the bush
    thats why we cant change things so easy

    so if we want to change our server ( would be perfect for us ) all the settings from mailservers till the password has to remain the same
    ...
    is possible if we would change to a reseller server ?

    Thanks a lot

    As I said, this is possible if you used your domain name (or a sub-domain of it) to specify the POP server in the client mail software. If you connect via the server's hostname or IP, then you will have to make changes in your client mail software.
