shaw question

did Shaw just increase webmail to 1gb

just logged into my webmail and noticed that the size of the webmail box is now 1024mb as I had previoulsy been perilously close to the 100mb allotment

Is that a new thing? I went up to shaw.ca and indeed it does say 1gb for webmail storage

Interesting, since my mailbox still shows 100 MB

Re: did Shaw just increase webmail to 1gb

not all accounts have been migrated yet, but it appears any new accounts created have the new limits in place already.

EDIT:
I just went to the online customer care page at secure.shaw.ca, logged in, went to the internet services page, and edited my emails (without making any actual changes), hit submit, and it seems to have triggered the upgrade in the system.

Filesize has also been upgraded to 20MB, and the maximum message number has also taken a huge turn for the better.

Makes it an actual decent mail option now.

I will still stick to running my own mail server with 100% control, and oh have no spam at all, not even in my spam folder.

But shaws service is ok for average joe.

Thats all good and fine, But there still missing IMAP...not to mention there pop3 system is very less than desirable... Will not inter-grate into Blackberry...BIS..

Good step forward but there is still a long ways to go.

Won't integrate? Try pop.shaw.ca for your incoming server. Should work just fine, if you use the correct outgoing.
And IMAP support is reserved for business/SOHO accounts. If you really want the IMAP, spend the extra few bucks to upgrade to business class.

Finally some-one who will give me a valid pop address for Shaw... Everytime I have asked tech support for it... I am told it does not exist and I get some mail.shawcable....etc..etc what ever the beep it is....

I will play around at the office tomorrow and see if with the proper information I can finally get Shaw email to work (BIS/ BES).... Thank you very much for that information...

As for the imap... It was just a comment.. I was not even aware they even offer it to there biz customer... Good to see

I pay extra for my email anyways as I use an outside hosting company for all my personal email needs... Your exactly right if you want the advanced functions your going to have to pay for it... and I am more than happy to and will continue to be so.
