Business Email
SmarterMail
Enterprise-grade email without enterprise pricing. SmarterMail supports the MAPI protocol, so Outlook behaves the way it does on Exchange — shared calendars, contacts and folders included — at a fraction of the cost.
POP3 and IMAP are supported too, along with webmail, video chat and remote screen sharing.
Why it matters for a practice
Client correspondence is confidential by default in your line of work. Free consumer email accounts scan message content, sit outside your control, and look wrong on a business card.
Email on your own domain, hosted alongside your site, keeps the correspondence yours and the branding consistent.
Domains For Accounting Firms
Register and renew through DomainsForAccountants, our own registrar. If you are taking a website bundle, hosting or a custom build, your first year is free on a new domain — ask when you order.
Existing customer? Hosting and DNS control panel • Webmail
