Cox Webmail Business.

Cox Webmail Business.

When you want to access your webmail account while you are away, without having to pay for a second internet connection, the Cox Webmail Business will give you access. All you need is an email address.

This service will not only let you check your email when connected through the telephone line, but it also allows remote users to access their email accounts. This will allow small businesses to make use of this cost-effective way to keep in touch with employees who are out on the road, for example.

The service provides your internet connection through your web browser. It’s useful for maintaining global connections and is ideal when users need to continue working while they’re not at work. It can also be used when employees are on the road.

How it works: All you have to do is enter your username and password into a web browser. Then, using a virtual private network connection that you establish through your local area network (LAN), the service will give you access to your email account from anywhere in the world. (VPN stands for the virtual private network; it’s an encrypted connection that ensures safe communication to your email service provider.)

The service is easy to set up. The software can be downloaded and activated in just a few minutes. After you’re connected, the service encrypts the information flowing between your computer (and browser) to our servers over the Internet and vice versa.

If you have a lot of information you want to download, we suggest using FTP (file transfer protocol) so that you can set up a connection with your provider’s servers where the information resides. With this setup, when you’re in front of your computer, you can quickly and easily access files that are stored on your provider’s server.

Cox Webmail Business is available for $8.95 per month (plus tax).

Service details: After you log in, the first thing that appears on your screen is what we refer to as the “front page.” From there, you can use Cox Webmail Business just like any other webmail interface:

◆ You can send and receive emails using your email address and password.

◆ Attachments in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint formats are supported.

◆ You can create folders to store your incoming, outgoing, or archived messages.

◆ You can delete messages from the server or move them to other folders. And you have access to your address book.

There are other features as well, such as an option for “auto-reply” and a feature that will hold messages in the Outbox until you’re ready to send them. And instead of printing hard copies of your emails, you can save them as files on your computer or laptop. Also, when connected, you can upload or download files to your webmail account.

Providers supported:

Other features include file attachments with Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint formats; address book; email options for the auto-reply, support for IMAP4 clients with SSL/TLS connections when available, proxy support through SOCKS 4 or 5 when available.
