In collaboration with our long-standing ISP, Insanely Great Ltd of Bristol, we are now able to offer email addresses at this domain in the form Thus, if your name is John Smith, you can use the email address
What is the service?
The service is a mailbox at this address, providing POP, SMTP, IMAP and (shortly)
web access.
Who is able to use it?
The service is available to all instructors and students of Practical
Tai Chi Chuan.
How would I use it?
You must already have some kind of internet connection through an
ISP, since IG will only provide the mailbox. You would make an internet connection
through whichever ISP you currently use (eg. BTInternet, Demon, etc.) and having
configured your mail client (eg. Microsoft Outlook, Netscape Mail, Eudora, etc)
simply pick up and send mail through taichichuan.co.uk instead of, or in addition
to, your other mail accounts.
Can I use web mail (like Yahoo or MSN) at this address?
This service will be available shortly. The cost will remain the same.
What is the cost?
The cost is £25 per year.
How can I pay?
By sending a cheque for £35 to Insanely Great. You should write
your new taichichuan.co.uk email address on the reverse of the cheque.
Is it reliable?
I bought this domain in 1996 and have used it as my main account ever
since.
IG have provided excellent service throughout that time.
...er, it seems rather expensive
Like many sites of this kind, PTCCI is basically run on a volunteer
basis. John Bunyan, Lachlan Scott and the staff at Insanely Great have invested
considerable time and effort in managing the site over the years. We've devised
this service as a means of keeping it financially viable.
OK, I'm sold! How do I get my spangly new mailbox?
1.) Email, telephone, write or fax Mark Steer, the Network Administrator at
Insanely Great, requesting a mailbox
2.) Inclue your first and last name in the message
3.) Send a cheque or similar (with your new email name on the back, so they
know who it's from) to their address.
4.) Mark will provide details of how to configure your mail client to pick up
and send mail at your new address.
For payment: James Chiswell-Jones, Director
