Boss welcome to the world of problems.

I have several domains hosted here. The system outage is very high. There is a system maintenance almost weekly which is normally followed by down time and you have to follow up all the time for the system to be restored. They keep changing the cpanel and webmail keep dying.

what is worse is the email delays, you can miss your emails for 3 days only to get them all at once in a night and they never admit whenever there is problem.

The normal practice with domain hosting is that once you register and host you should only contact your provider during renewal of service. Not every day, you have to call support very annoying. If you have hosted before with host-gator, ready hosting or rack-space, you will definitely see a great difference in terms of platform and hosting maturity and stability.

Hello world,

For those of you who are hosting their mail/web services with
Safaricom (from domains.safaricom.co.ke) what is your general
experience?
I advised and assisted a friend to sign up for these services
yesterday afternoon. I have been configuring the services - starting
with the mail accounts and my experience accessing the Cpanel/Webmail
has been awful. Timeouts even when you are on SCOM's network (3G).

Is this the norm or it's just an unfortunate day with the speeds?

Do they allow allow sending from other networks - aka authenticated
SMTP were someone to use MS Outhouse, for instance?
