    This seems the most appropriate forum here...

    Is there a control panel that will let me forward my @eircom.net address?
    ( @iol.ie addresses can be forwarded using http://mailman.iol.ie/ )

    Mr Michele,
    I use eircom webmail, now I have my own domain with nice webmail,
    so I want to forward the eircom address to that, and stopusing their awful
    webmail.

    Then stop using it......
    POP your mail from mail1.eircom.net or use www.mail2web.com. The eircom webmail makes baby jebus cry.

    The only mapping eircom will do is from domains they manage onto an indigo.ie address.

    :)

    Which webmail client are you using with your host?
    Squirrelmail, for example, allows you to setup a simple remote POP, so you could collect your eircom mail from the same interface as your domain.

    It is IMP 3.x, there isin't an option to add extra pop/imap accounts.

    However, I've had a look at http://www.webbox.com ( the subscribed version of http://www.mailstart.com/ ) which costs USD 18 pa, and suits my needs perfectly.
